What do you make?
Little girls reversible pinafores in new and recycled fabrics, earrings, accessories and I occasionally experiment with hats, shorts and the odd tea cosy.
Why would you buy something handmade?
I always try to buy handmade things for pressies. I know how pleasing it is for me when other people buy my things. It is a happy cycle – you get something different and made with love, the maker gets the satisfaction of knowing that people like their goods and a bit of extra pocket money. Perfect!
Where else might we see your work? I am at the Lyttelton Market most Saturdays, shops Pocket, Blackbird and Cows Go Moo also stock my pinafores. You can check out my Facebook page.
How did you get into your craft?
I come from a creative family (not sly and crafty). I have been crafting forever (always in my spare time which seems to decrease as I get older). My craft has evolved from bead and wire jewellery to sewing clothes for small people.
What are your favourite materials, tools and/or processes? My favourite process is the search for top fabrics that are not too expensive. My favourite tools, probably a pair of pliers I have had since I was about 8 that have stuck by me and are still the best for making jewellery.
