Finally! I’ve stopped being scared and started loading some of my goodies on Etsy🎉You’ll find me under Bagsitsmine1 (shop). I’d love it if you would follow my shop so it gains a bit of traction in that vast site🙏🏻. I’ll be adding products regularly from now on. Just to let you know though, it’s always cheaper to buy from me direct as no add on fees😉

Bit of hand stitching to finish off a new Teddy’s bottom🤗 I so love making these. Working out the best placement for the fabrics. Backing them so they don’t stretch and are resilient. Embroidering the personalisation on the feet then filling with toy grade filling to bring them to life. My happy place ☺️

Loving these hanging globes. I only have three left but they look great with tea lights/plants or filled up with cotton wool❤️

How many ways can you dress a basket? These are so decorative and give a stylish finish to your bathroom,bedroom or kitchen. How would you use yours? Made by me to any size xx

Deliberate Mistake to check you're all awake haha. The class is crochet, not sewing as I mistakenly wrote on my pretty picture.

My new beginners crochet course starts on June 5th. Only 4 places available and one has gone already !! Cost is £80 for 8hours of tuition and all equipment you need to learn this mindful craft and make a beautiful basket for your home :) Pop me a message if you:d like to join us x

I’m so sorry for those of you waiting on my new class dates. We’ve had two lots of family accidents which have thrown my availability out of kilter since February. I am planning some different classes this year with slow sewing (basic embroidery) pictures, fabric printing for lampshades, amigurumi crochet and maybe a craft and natter group.
If any of that would interest you. Please let me know in the comments below 🤗

Making a lovely order of hedgehogs for a client. Putting the finishing touches on is a lovely part of the process. Isn’t it amazing what you can do with a ball of twine and a hook. Add a little toy stuffing, some safety eyes, sew it all together and two relatively uninteresting shapes become a real cutie ☺️ This pattern is from www.1dogwoof.com

Loving this colour! Spring fresh grassy green 💚Well actually it’s called Kale but 🤷‍♀️it’s still lovely. This yarn is a lovely textured Acrylic/wool and viscose mix so can be washed up to 40 degrees but I’d recommend handwashing and reshaping while damp. That will also ensure the wooden label will not be damaged. x This one is 18cm x 14cm and £28 including UK postage. Payment by Paypal which protects you and me ☺️

I have three of these little lovelies looking for a new home. If you’d like one they are £15 +UK postage (local pick up) . I only have three of these so get in quick with a ‘Bags it’s Mine! ‘ in the comments below 🫶🏻

What’s been on the hook this last couple of days? It’s all about containers. Baskets, planters and pot holders 🤗So many colours of gorgeous twine. What to do next??

These little jute baskets are so adaptable. I’m taking some of these to Outdoor Market on April 6th. Would love to see you there if you’re local 🤗

It’s the time of year for hedgehogs to get out and about again 😍

Heading to market on April 6th from 12-4pm with some of my goodies. We’re hoping for a nice day as it’s outdoors (although I’ll be under cover🎉) It would be great to see lots of you there supporting local small businesses.

day 8 and !
Today is all about my brand. I will admit to struggling a bit with branding and being consistent but i’m trying 🫣
Bags it’s Mine! was created to reflect the fact that I was making bags when I started out (what? really? 🤣)As my business has developed, I’ve been advised to change my name but I don’t want to! To me it reflects the fact that I don’t mass produce and that each piece I make is either individual or a small batch piece so…if you want it, be quick and yell ‘Bags it’s Mine!’ 😂❤️

Nothing brings me greater pleasure than being trusted with precious fabrics and creating something tangible to hold all those memories. As there are many types of fabrics, each piece is backed with cotton interfacing to ensure the pieces are sewn together without distorting. I design the quilt, cushion or teddy, specific to the desire of the client. The finished product provides a huggable memory for a loved one lost or just a way of trapping amemory of a specific time or event. See below for some of the items I have made. I am privileged🤗

If you would like something beautiful, made specifically for you, please do get in touch, I look forward to working with you and helping you realise your idea or vision.

I also run a series of workshops from my home, including beginners sewing and crochet classes and add on classes for specific skills. (Currently suspended due to COVID-19 restrictions.)
