This weekend, I’ll be taking part in the Virtual Arts & Crafts Fair with Workshop. I’m selling a few limited edition embroidered pieces.

In a time which makes it difficult to visit physical craft fairs, we’ve gathered together a wonderful range of talented independent artists and makers to bring you our Virtual Craft Market. Launching on the 25th September and running until the 27th in celebration of our store’s 2nd birthday. 

When you order, we’ll send it through to the artist/maker who’ll despatch it direct. All prices include postage, however please pay attention to lead times as these may vary depending on if the product needs to be made from scratch.

With all purchases, a percentage will be donated to Leeds Women’s Aid.

There are some great pieces from Yorkshire based designers and makers, perfect for picking up an early Christmas present or a treat for yourself.

For regular updates about my practice you can follow me on social media or sign up to my newsletter.
