Well hello… I’m back!
After a two-week break from Instagram, I’m finally ready to get back into business mode — and honestly, I’m really glad to be here.
Following my birthday, I made the decision to step away from social media for a week and put myself first for a change. My birthday felt particularly heavy this year. I’ve spoken before about how difficult 2025 was for our family, and birthdays can bring a lot of those feelings back to the surface.
So instead of feeling like I needed to keep showing up for my small business online, I gave myself permission to step away.
And then came our family holiday to The Netherlands.
No sewing. No social media. No worrying about algorithms or Instagram reach. Just family time, having fun and making memories together — exactly what I needed.
But now I’m back… and after the bank holiday weekend, it’s FULL ON business mode!
There is so much coming over the next few months at My Little Flamingo:
Autumn is officially on its way, with the 3 amazing new autumn fabric prints I’ve already shared… PLUS a surprise FOURTH print that I absolutely cannot wait to show you!
I’m also heading back onto the market scene as we run towards Christmas, with some brand new market locations to add to the calendar.
And I’ll be revamping and relaunching my family-friendly journals too — perfect for keeping children entertained, creating memories and making the most of time spent together. They also make such lovely gifts for anyone who spends lots of time with little ones.
Oh, and P.S… there are still some amazing sale items available on the website, with bargain prices and ready-to-post goodies if you’re looking for some handmade children’s clothes without the made-to-order wait!
I’m so glad to be back… and even more glad to be back with this amazing Instagram community.
So stick around — there’s LOTS coming!
What are you most excited to see: the surprise autumn print, new market dates, or the returning family-friendly journals?

Tell me below — I’d love to know what you’re looking forward to!

Autumn market season is almost here, and I can't wait to see you!
Here’s where you can find me in September and October at local in-person markets, with lots of gorgeous handmade children’s clothes and accessories to browse in person.
And there’s an extra reason to come and have a look… I’ll be bringing brand new autumn and Halloween fabric prints and designs that you won’t have seen before!
If you love shopping small, supporting handmade businesses and finding something a little different for your little ones, come and say hello. I’d absolutely love to see you!
Not able to make it to a market? Don’t worry — you can always browse and order my handmade baby and children’s clothes online, with everything available through my website. Link in bio.

2026 has already been a pretty special year for this little handmade business.
So far, My Little Flamingo has been named a South West England Prestige Awards winner, an official Small Business Sunday winner and a finalist in the Wiltshire Muddy Stilettos Awards.
Three very different achievements, but all of them mean so much to me.
Behind every award is a huge amount of designing, sewing, fabric cutting, packing, market stalls, late nights, learning and, most importantly, the support of the people who choose to shop with a small UK business.
Thank you for helping my handmade children’s clothing business keep growing. I’m incredibly proud of how far this little business has come.
And there’s still plenty more to come in 2026…

Have you ever wondered why handmade children's clothes cost more than high street alternatives?
This tiger dungaree bodice is made from 19 individual fabric pieces, each carefully cut, positioned and sewn together by hand before the rest of the garment can even be assembled. It's a process that takes time, patience and years of sewing experience.
When you choose handmade children's clothing, you're choosing quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design and clothing that's made to be loved, played in and passed on. Every stitch is part of creating something special for your child.
If you love seeing the real process behind handmade children's clothes, follow along for more behind-the-scenes sewing videos, exclusive fabric designs and sustainable children's fashion.

SUMMER SALE ANNOUCEMENT - ready-made dresses, t-shirts & shorts are now ALL REDUCED!
Summer adventures deserve clothes that are just as hardworking as your little explorers.
When I design every handmade garment, I think about comfort, durability, sustainability and giving children the freedom to simply be children. From breathable organic cotton to gender-inclusive animal designs and adjustable features, every detail is carefully considered.
And if you've been thinking about trying My Little Flamingo, now is the perfect opportunity because my Summer Sale is now on.

It happened again yesterday, and I absolutely love seeing people's reactions when I tell them...
"I draw them all myself."
I created these collections for parents looking for something a little different. Handmade children's clothing filled with unique animals, colourful prints and gender-inclusive designs that celebrate every child. Whether your little one loves pigs, flamingos, mice, foxes, ducks or owls, there isn't a "boys'" version or a "girls'" version—just beautifully designed clothes made to be worn and loved.
The best part? I'm always dreaming up new fabric collections, so there's always something new on the horizon. It also means that if you fall in love with a particular print, it's worth snapping it up because my collections are constantly evolving.
I'd love to know... did you already know that I design all of my own fabrics, or is this the first time you've discovered the story behind them?

One of the biggest surprises of running my handmade children's clothing business hasn't been learning to sew faster or juggle all the admin...
It's discovering just how incredible complete strangers can be.
The people who follow along every week, leave encouraging comments, recommend my business to friends, stop to chat at markets or choose to support handmade over mass-produced.
Those little acts of kindness mean more than you'll ever know.
I've also met some amazing fellow small business owners through markets and events. What started as saying hello across neighbouring stalls has turned into genuine friendships, online encouragement and always having someone in your corner who just gets it!
Of course, I couldn't do any of this without my husband and children, who support me every single day. ❤️
But I've learnt not to measure my success by who I already know.
Instead, I focus on building a welcoming community around my small business —because those strangers often become loyal customers, familiar faces and, eventually, friends.
If you're a fellow small business owner, I'd love you to...
