Loft is now done!! What was once an unusable space with no proper floor, no electric, and no insulation is now usable and ready to move in to.

It's so nice, I love it, cant wait to get my sewing machines in there and start using it 😍.

Do you remember the 2 gorgeous Ben Sherman "The Beatles" shirts i showed you last week?

Well, they are now finished, have been collected from The Little Shop of Handmade Loveliness in Lancaster, and one has now been gifted to my customers daughter so I can now show you the finished bears.

Not only were the shirts beautiful but the fabric was soft and lovely to work with. I am very pleased with the end result but more importantly my customer was blown away by them. Her words when she saw them, through tears "they are a million times better than I imagined".

Thank you for trusting me with your special memories 🥰

Next up is the transformation of these 2 lovely "Beatles" shirts into 2 Medium Bens.

These have come to me via The Little Shop of Handmade Loveliness on James Lane in Lancaster.

If anyone is thinking of having a memory bear made and you want to see a few examples of my work then you're more than welcome to pop into the shop and tell the lovely ladies in there that I sent you. They'll be more than happy to talk you through the options. 🐻 🐻‍❄ 🧸

Latest makes are now back home.
Made in memory of a very much missed little dog from his jumpers and bed.
I also made 2 Cuff-berts so little Leo can still accompany his family on outings 🥰

Lovely keepsake made from a primary school uniform. Now gone home before Arabella starts High School in September.

I added the hair clip onto the bears ear which Arabella wore on her first day at Nursary 😍

Amazing team work and customer service by ladies at The Little Shop of Handmade Loveliness this week.

A customer ordered some bespoke mugs for special friends. Deadline day 10th Aug. Unfortunately the mugs were broken during delivery to her.

Lisa from Tailored with Love made replacements in record time and Lily from Shoreline Designs hand delivered them to Grange yesterday for the lovely customer to collect. Safe to say she was one happy lady!

You wouldn't get that kind of service from Amazon!

Well done ladies🥰.
