Colour, Kitsch and Beautiful Blooms!
We've been very busy during the last few weeks making bags and cushions to add to our Man Made range and thought we'd share with you some of the latest additions to the website. As you can see from the colourful 'Sophia' bag above, it isn't just pretty country florals that are transformed!
These cushions were made from the prettiest 1930s Sanderson prints - I can't decide whether I like the painterly colours of the chrysanthemums...
...or the delicate colours of the hyacinths.
Then there's this beautiful 1950s French carnations fabric; wow!
This harlequin patchwork bag is a favourite of mine, all of those beautiful 1950s rosy blooms brought together are a real treat!
Whilst we're on the subject of colour and vintage fabrics - I can thoroughly recommend a visit to the website of Squint Limited - sit back and enjoy the show!!
I'm off to rummage through some more vintage fabrics for our next batch of handmade treasures! Enjoy the rest of your week!
