My latest project







These are one of my favourite things made recently. Each fabric disc is slightly different to the next, using all sorts of fabrics. So far the styles include Gothic/lolita, vintage and animal print.

Zips


Another design for the twisted zip idea. I also made a bracelet version.

Twisted zip


Not one for waste, I wanted to find a use for the zip ends I had left over from the purses I'd made (I used some rediculously long zips I had lying around).
After a bit of playing around I came up with this little sculpture like creation, which I then made into a brooch. I love it!

New life!


I have been pondering over my little clutch bag thinking of other variations on the idea, which culminated in me chopping off a trouser leg! (I have a stash of unwanted clothing I want to re-cycle). It is the same shape and design as the first bag, which you can slip your hand in the back of the lace strap for carrying. It also features a twisted zip detail.

It fits!


I have finally made myself my very own made to measure corset/belt in the style of my final collection. Yey!!

Clutch


This is my first attempt at making a clutch bag. Black leatherette, fully lined with red satin, and you can slip your hand in the back of the red strap for easy carrying.
