Over the years, I have built up quite a collection of vintage haberdashery, beautiful fabrics and beads. Much of it, I cannot bear to part with, but I am putting some of it together as limited edition sewing kits and packs. I am selling these in my Etsy shop. The designs will be seasonal and only available in small numbers.

The kits contain pattern templates where appropriate, detailed instructions and most materials required to complete the project. For example, I am currently offering kits for "Pooch Purses" that contain British wool tweed, Sudbury silk, a vintage button and all of the haberdashery you need to make one purse. The templates can be used again to make a choice of three dog applique designs.   Other packs currently available include wool tweed Melford Messenger Bag kits containing handwoven Harris Tweed, a long leather strap, a magnetic snap, vintage buttons for trimming and a professionally printed sewing pattern. These wool fabric packs are great value for money and will enable sewers to replicate the Charlie's Aunt signature look. I will also be offering packs of vintage buttons, frog fasteners, ribbon and other items that will enhance your Charlie's Aunt sewing projects. For current kits, visit our Etsy shop at www.charliesaunt.etsy.com and check regularly as new items will be added weekly.
