Bunting quilt - £135 - measures 43x53" and requires at least 10 items of clothing.

Waiting List and How to Order
My waiting times will vary throughout the year so please message me for an estimated waiting time or to be placed on the list. I will not need any payment when you place your order, but I will require full payment when I start your item.
PLEASE NOTE the Bears and animals are made to a very high standard using quality materials and polyester stuffing that conforms to British Safety Standards. But these animals are NOT suitable for children under the age of 14 as they have not been CE yested. These are homemade items and to get them CE tested would involve burning the fabric which you would agree is not feasible. Also materials such as eyes, bows and buttons pose a choking hazard. As the Keepsakes are made out of used clothing, they are likely to be more fragile than toys made from new fabric.... show more Therefore, I must stress that they are a Keepsake and not a toy. So please do not give them to under 14’s to play with!
I can not accept any responsibility for any incidents that may occur if you do not follow these guidelines.
Bespoke Commisioned Items
If you have an idea that you would like made, for example the Cat in the Hat quilt that can be seen in my gallery, please get in touch.
Thank you for looking at my page, and I hope I can help to make your items into the beautiful keepsakes you would cherish x show more
