Sleepy Rabbit

1 week to go until I will be in the foyer of Portobello Town Hall for Octobers installment of Support the Makers | Independent Makers | Markets Makers Market!

I'll be all set up with a load of new clothes plus my sewing machine to patch up yours and your kids old clothes!

Whether it's an old top with a stain, a jacket with a tear or just something with a naff logo - I can patch it!

Bring along whatever you want patching. Tops, trousers, bags, bibs, jackets, sweatshirts - whatever!

The only time it will be a problem is if theres an area that's too narrow to fit in my machine eg. A child's sleeve. Feel free to message if you have any questions about suitability!

I've spent weeks making loads of different applique patches. Theres a variety of size, style, colour and price so there's something for everyone!

If you have any specific requests let me know this week and I can still try to make it for you.

We can discuss placement and choose thread colour together to make sure its in the perfect spot for you and possible to sew for me!

I use iron on adhesive to fix it in place then stitch it on so its extra secure!

You walk away with a one-off customised item of clothing with a new lease of life. Keeping clothes for longer and reducing fabric ending up in landfill.

I hope to see you there!! Tag a pal who would love this and comment below if you have any special patch requests 💖🪡

Tell everyone you know!

Fun fact: my logo is based on my sons first toy I made before he was born 🐰

If you had a business named after your kids favourite toy what would it be? 👀
