I am retired, 70+ and do not want my hobby to overtake my life as it has been. RIVER HOUSE CRAFTS, BIDEFORD
Named for River House. Our Home since 2013, and base for my Hobby of sewing, I make all-sorts, Clothes for Grandchildren, soft furnishings, toys and bespoke handbags. I also knit, crochet and embroider, I have been sewing now for 60 years. I have a recycled element to ALL my Bags as I buy f
abric from local charity shops and re-use it....mainly faux silk curtains for linings. I never duplicate any handbag I make so they are truly unique. I try to use themed (dogs, cats, animals etc.) and eye-catching fabrics plus my own templates. I make items for local craft fairs in Bideford and Appledore ONLY. I also now have a personal card machine for these Events. I am not interested in running a business or increasing my output as I am retired and now 70+, this year I'd like to get out and about rather than be chained to my machine trying to cope with extra events or special commissions, and still being able to fill my table.........
