And so it begins...
Last month I launched my wee collection. For the first time I showed the world what I’d been working on for the last three years. This is a wee update and a thank you to every single one of you who donated, or bought a-twice-sold-out print, or pre-ordered your very own piece from my first ever collection - all 149 of you.
I’ve spent the last month keeping myself busy while I waited on your leather being made in Italy. First up were the limited edition prints. Rachel Millar came up to the Highlands to pay me a wee visit, climb some hills and sign and number each and every print, in the order you bought them in. We hope you love them and would love to see photos of where you display them as a daily reminder to take your time.
I also had enough leather to make three beautiful framed weaves. Each frame was hand crafted locally by Emma Noble using either limed ash or stained with a bespoke colour to match the cotton of the weave. I can’t wait to see these in your homes and studios. As these are bespoke they won’t be for sale on my website but if you didn’t get your hands on one and would like to commission your own - just get in touch.
For those waiting on your very own Swing Case, Barrel Bag, Half Moon Crossbody or Circular Bag - I’m beyond happy to say the first drop of leather has arrived from Italy! Those of you who follow me on instagram will have seen the Agave Green leather arrive this week (photo above!) and will have learnt that this beautiful, deep teal green colour was made bespoke for this project - it doesn’t exist anywhere else in the world.
For updates keep an eye on my instagram and sign up to my new newsletter below where you’ll get to see behind the scenes as I make each of your bags…
