About us

All our kits are made here in Yorkshire, England by our small but very efficient team.

We are all passionate about crafts and creativity. When we send our kits to our customers, we like to think of the joy and excitement of opening the box! We want to send you inspiration, creativity and quality materials. The felt we use is soft and luxurious with 45% wool and 55% viscose.

How did it all start?

Back in 2002 I  left a career in fashion design to look after my three young children. After a few years at home, I was really missing being creative and learnt millinery (hat making). This is how I discovered felt and it was love at first sight! I had to learn how to make it and this is just what I did. The more I learnt about this amazing material and its versatility, the more I felt inspired.

In 2009, I started to exhibit at craft fairs to sell my felted goods. At Christmas time, I decided to make a little kit for people to make felt gingerbread men. It was an instant hit! I realised people where keen to learn and make so in 2010, the business was born!

I decided to concentrate on felt sewing kits and to inspire others. I attended trade shows, retail fairs, started to sell on Create and Craft TV and it all grew from there. We are now selling all over the UK, France, the rest of Europe, Australia and Japan.

Everything is still made here in Yorkshire by our fantastic team.

Come and meet the team!

 Creative director, I have the best job in the world! My head is constantly overflowing with ideas and I wish there was more time to explore them all.

My inspiration comes from nature, folk art and traditional textile crafts. I am always thinking about the next project.

  Nothing would happen without my fabulous and hard working team!
