NEW FABRIC

I’ve been wanting to write those words for a while, and look at the rainbow I’m saying them with 🌈

Gorgeous satins reclaimed from a Brighton local maker having a clear-out.

On the fabric shop and ready to order by the metre now (link in bio)

Hi everyone! I’m back with a fun giveaway game: Finding a home for these guys!
I’ve been donated 2 brother Electroknit electronic knitting machines and I’d really like to find them their perfect loving homes. If you know someone who would make good use of them (perhaps they have an idea to launch using recycled or repurposed materials 😉)- please tag them below. Or please share this post to help reach good owners!

I’ve been pausing and listening to a lot recently, and being fairly quiet about it for now. I’ve been allowing myself to be privately quiet.

This is something I’m going to be up front about though. I’m here, listening and learning and I’ll be taking every opportunity to act.

From now until 7th June, let’s ‘mute’ and make space on social for important BLM content.

Popped into the studio today to snip up and pack a couple of fabric orders. Combining it with a rainy walk. I’ve been missing my studio so so much.

My second podcast feature is out now!

This was a fantastic experience for me, I’ve been a fan of Catherine Weetman for a couple of years now, her book has been a great resource for how I investigate circular economy practicalities. She’s also just wonderful to chat with!

Find it on Apple, Spotify and Google Podcasts to name a few! Show notes are on curculareconomypodcast.com

is a campaign to encourage positive conversation about our future, created by

With the notion that it takes just 3 weeks to form a habit - what positive change are you seeing during lockdown, that could be taken into the future?

For me, it’s my connection with my neighbours. We’re creating a sharing economy and spirit that I feel is essential to be embraced all the way up to a global scale

Join in the campaign by tagging and and share your thoughts on forming habits for a better world!

I've written a blog about my response to the coronavirus crisis. It's tough. I have very little business happening. However I'm very lucky that I work solo and don't have to let anyone down, nor do I have too many overheads to worry about. It is what it is, as they say!
Have a read to get my initial thoughts, I'll be sharing more soon!

Our many exciting plans for April had to disappear, but I'm eager to make sure the conversations around textile waste don’t.

are hosting a fab member discussion adressing what the future beyond the pandemic might look like for the circular economy on the 2nd, but aside from that I'm pretty much open.

If you feel the same as me, that we should start talking about what we have now and what may lie ahead, I'm extending an invitation to you to comment or send me a DM with what you're eager to discuss, and I’ll curate some small online events to cover them.

Please also tag anyone who would be interested in being involved, and let me know any existing online events I can populate my calendar with too!

This was very powerful. hosted a very well sanitised 2.0 and the energy that grew throughout the day was astounding. Approaching each other without dominance or intimidation but with encouragement and practical opportunities. I spoke to new people who I now look forward to working with, and supporting. This was the perfect balance of serious learning and lovely laughing. Incredible speakers and performers, I was in awe time and time again. ‘s talk resonated with me beautifully and hilariously. The performance by moved my heart. The workshop delivered shifted something really important for me. And the panel at the end (pictured) was extremely rich, thanks so much to everyone who contributed there!

Thank you again and for creating and holding this space - what an event! You two kicked ass!

I’m ever so honoured to be featured as one of ‘s ‘Inspirational Women in Sustainable Fashion’ Alongside the likes of and ... wow - I mean, these are some of the women who inspired me to start The Textile Review, so to be featured in an interview series with them is of course quite dreamy. Thank you Dvora, you’re a wonderful and brilliantly talented woman, and I thoroughly enjoyed our day together!
