Happy New Year 2015!


I hope you had a lovely Christmas and a happy New Year! I'm back from my travels and ready to make some new designs. I received a very thoughtful Christmas present of some Business cards from my sister designed by her friend Emily. I think this might save me hours of hand stamping old bits of recycled cardboard!

I have sourced some lovely fairtrade organic cotton for new designs but my first priority is to use up my pretty vintage fabric stash so that is what I am busy with right now.

Introducing...

A sneak peek at my first hand made collection! I've been working on these pieces for a while and being made redundant from my day job has given me a much needed kick to get working on my designs. I have drafted some simple wearable patterns to make the most of my second hand fabric stash so each item is very unique. I am looking to source some fairtrade organic bamboo fabrics so I can offer each piece in more sizes so if you like a piece from the collection please do get in touch - I'm up for commissions :) I'll be posting about each piece in the collection as I upload them into my etsy shop www.robesetfemmes.etsy.com
My email is robesetfemmes@gmail.com or feel free to comment below!
