About Me

Hi there! 👋 I’m Cheryl, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. As a self-proclaimed fabric enthusiast (or should I say addict?), this is where I share my love for all things sewing, fabric, and handmade creations. Based in Christchurch, Dorset, on the sunny South Coast of the UK, I’ve turned my passion for creating into a space where I can connect with fellow sewists and inspire others to pick up a needle and thread. 🧵✨

A Little About Me 🌟

I’ve always been captivated by the endless possibilities of fabric. Whether it’s the intricate details of lingerie design, the artistry of handbag making, or even practical projects like cushion covers, I’m constantly inspired by the magic that can be created with needle, thread, and a little imagination. For years, having my own brand felt like a distant dream—but recently, with a bit more time on my hands, I’ve decided it’s finally time to explore that dream.

Sewing started as a creative escape for me—a way to find calm amidst the chaos of everyday life. Growing up, I watched my nan, my two mums, and my grandma bring their ideas to life with needle and thread. Their passion sparked my curiosity and made me eager to learn, and now, sewing has become not just a hobby but a part of who I am. Over time, it’s grown into something much more: a source of joy, self-expression, and connection.

Life at Home 🏡💖

I’m a single mum of three wonderful children. My two boys, Harley and Riley, are all grown up and have flown the nest. Now, it’s just me and my 13-year-old daughter, Siena, at home. We’re lucky to live near the water, and when I’m not sewing, you’ll often find me paddleboarding, boating, or just soaking up the calming beauty of the coastline. Between managing a busy household and carving out time for myself, sewing has become my sanctuary—a place where I can unwind, dream, and create.
