New Karrah Designs prints!

It's been a while since I introduced some new prints into my Karrah Designs accessories range and I thought it was about time that I added something new. I had a rummage through my sewing box, as I have loads of amazing fabrics that I have bought on my travels, but never got around to using. As a result, some of the new styles will be very limited! Here are 3 for today;

This fabric was one that I bought in Sydney and used to make a skirt with. I had about half a metre left that I had shipped back to England (I love the print and couldn't part with it!). I haven't got enough fabric to make any clothes, so I thought I should make a few clutches, including one for myself, of course!

This is another limited edition print, as I got the fabric from a flea market (in Paris, I think!). I love the story that is being told in the print, it is full of linear drawings of quaint scenes from times gone by!

Finally,  lovely jade green ikat style print, perfect for the summer months. This fabric was also bought on a trip, this time to Wales!

All of the clutches above are from my unique '1 bag 6 ways to style' series. This style is great if you are looking to stretch your money a bit further, as you can change the bag and style it in 6 different ways. The clutches are available in 2 sizes (with the possibility of custom requests, too) and prices start from £35/$52. Just click on the pictures for more information! 

New leather colours!

I'm so excited about the new neon swatches that I received today!

Snow day

In England, it very rarely snows. Because if this, when it does snow, the whole county pretty much shuts down, as it did today. Because 7cm of snow fell, I ended up having to abandon my car & get my uncle to pick me up in his 4x4! My friend in Canada sent me this picture, that made it all seem a bit ridiculous!

Yum

I was treated to one of my fave desserts today....Eton mess cheesecake :)

Inspiration

I am inspired by so many things, most of them completely random and unrelated to fashion, like the image below, for example....

New fabrics

I say new, I've actually been collecting an eclectic mix of fabrics for some time now. I probably should be coming up with a particular 'concept' or 'story' for my deigns but, at the moment, I am happy just going with 'things I love'. Hopefully you will like them, too!

Snow day!

It doesn't snow very often in England and I know that this amount of snow is tiny compared to many places, but for us, this is something to be excited about!

Happy 80th birthday grandma!

Cupcakes

It's a double birthday this weekend so I've been baking up a storm!

Memory lane

When I was a kid, my grandma & grandpa used to take me away in their caravan on holiday. I have some really amazing memories of these trips and even more came flooding back when I found one of our old sleeping bags with this memorable print on! Good times :)
