Emma Makes comes from a love of vintage textiles, handmade objects and creating a beautiful home.
I source an ever-changing array of short fabric runs to design and sew my own range of accessories, homewares and toys. In cooler months I work a lot with vintage wool, using blankets with names like Princess and Roslyn to create new, contemporary products for vintage-inspired homes.
Handmade is important to me: my notebooks are stacked, folded, sewn and trimmed by me. They've travelled the world, carried the hopes and dreams of mothers to be and jot down everyday things too.
When shopping vintage I like to pick fabrics and objects with a familiarity and story to them: long-lasting pieces that are well-made and will last you for years to come.
