Harris Tweed Crossbody bag with bee embroidery.
THE HARRIS TWEED BEE BAG
The result of an inter-Island collaboration – this fabulous Harris Tweed is hand woven by a weaver I know on the Isle of Lewis – this bag is remarkably spacious and has a full width zipped pocket on the back, an internal slip pocket, a large slip pocket on the front in contrasting tweed and a little pocket on the front of that (I would use it to stash my parking ticket – pesky things!).
It is fully lined with 100% cotton and measures 21 x 15 cm (8 ¼ x 6”).
The long, black faux leather strap is adjustable so it can be used as a crossbody bag or a shoulder bag. The strap is also detachable so the bag can be used as a packing pouch when you are on your travels.
Ideal for when you need to carry a little bit more than your phone but a little bit less than a full size bag. Some folk I know favour this size for use when dog walking – Harris Tweed is remarkably rugged. Ideal size for your Kindle too!
To top it all it is finished with my favourite Bee embroidery design and the two leather zipper tabs feature a decorative dark green glass-effect rivet.
The colour is a lovely Sage Green and the contrast pockets complement it perfectly.
It is softly padded but also unstructured so can be packed and sent through the post to a loved one (if you can REALLY part with it!)
All made by me in my home studio right here on the beautiful Isle of Man.

When you go to the checkout you will see two options:
1. Click and Collect which means you can pick it up from me at almost any time you like.
2. Vendor shipping which means you will pay for it to be posted to you.
By the way – although I charge for post – I don’t charge for packing as I try and use recycled packing materials wherever possible.
HAPPY JUNE!

Blazing June - and it's warm, sunny and wonderful here on the beautiful Isle of Man! We are bang in the middle of TT and the wonderful atmosphere and joy that it brings. I think it's worth mentioning therefore that if you see anything on this site that you would love to take home with you, bear in mind that it can be posted to your UK address so it will be waiting for you when you get back.
Last month I introduced the stunning new Star range of bags, purses and pouches by Cinnamon Embroidery which featured leather applique on canvas on a variety of bags and pouches. Inspired by this I've decided to make a smaller series of Western-style bags and pouches featuring embroidered leather applique on recycled denim. The first of these is shown above but I hope there will be more to follow.
I have to say I love the fact that I'm using recycled and upcycled fabrics and love, love, love working with leather and denim.

By the way, if you are viewing from the UK you might like to know that everything on my site can be purchased online and shipped to your home address. If you are a Manx resident you can enter the recipient's UK address and I'll send it on for you. I'll even add a note if you would like.(If you live outside the UK you may wish to contact me first - overseas postage can be prohibitive these days so best to talk about it first.

FOOTNOTE: You may have noticed that most of my items are marked 'one only'.
This is because everything I make is handmade - and handcut - from the bottom up! I make what I love and hope you will too!
