    Fashion Rat Bag

    A new customer had a few specific requirements before she ordered one of my paisley "rat bags". She asked for strap attachments so that she wouldn't lose the bag when she went to concerts. She also had a preference for the type of fabric used for the lining. I was happy to try and make her bag according to all her specifications. I managed to find the right attachments for the strap and I printed the fabric she preferred for the lining, which was my William Morris style patte

    First day of the Christmas Craft Fair today at The Plasterwork Studio, Southend, Essex.

    First sales of my designs by the yard

    People like to make their own clothes and accessories with unique prints they choose themselves. A designer friend of mine recommended that I open an online shop selling my designs by the yard (or meter). Until now I have been screen-printing the designs by hand individually. I decided to use the online shop portal called Spoonflower. They have an excellent reputation for good quality digital prints at a fair price.

    Popular Print Colours

    Black and white is by far the most popular colour combo for my rat design. I received orders for 3 cushions yesterday so today i was back in the print room screenprinting the fabric. It's very enjoyable when the printing is successful. Tomorrow i will collect the prints, iron them to fix the inks and then sew them and send them out. Someone in Bristol ordered two! good taste. #screenprint #design #fabric #handmade #rat
