I have been doing patchwork since 2007 and have in the past 2 years started making personalised gifts for friends that has led to creating gifts to order. Cushions, bags and bunting can be personalised with names, dates etc., for weddings, births or even advertising for your business. I love creating and putting colours together to create something original that will hopefully be loved by the eventual owner!

The idea was for a neutral background with a blue handbag and then the words "Never Enough Handbags". I have a simple bag shape which I appliquéd in the contrasting blue fabrics on an ecru linen fabric, then used a mid-blue thread to hand embroider the words, then bordered in a subtle neutral fabric, small buttons complete the look....
