A little glimpse into a beautiful Cotswold project in Cheltenham…

Today we fitted a collection of bespoke curtains and Roman blinds in this stunning period home, where every detail has been carefully considered.

The real stars of the show are the exquisite fabrics from Lewis & Wood and , bringing together timeless pattern, texture and colour to complement the character of the property beautifully.

The renovation is still very much a work in progress, so these photos only tell part of the story. I'm hoping to return once the project is complete to capture the finished interiors properly and share the full transformation.

For now, here’s a preview of a home that is shaping up to be something truly special.

I finished and fitted these curtains and pelmets today for this beautiful old Mill outside of Trellech.
The space was designed by E D D I E H A R R O P S T U D I O - Made using Warner House Amoli fabric — such a gorgeous print and perfect for the character of the space.

Working in old buildings always keeps you on your toes… nothing is straight in this place — not the floors, not the walls, not the windows — everything is delightfully wonky!
But that’s exactly what gives it so much charm.
Every measurement, pattern placement and finish needed a bit of adapting to make everything sit just right.

Really pleased with how they’ve turned out and how they frame those lovely windows while keeping the character of the room intact

It is a bit quiet on my social media, I am working on bigger projects and won't have much to share until these are completed.

It’s hard to believe these bar stools were once covered in flaky faux leather ✨

Now they blend seamlessly into this beautiful kitchen after being completely recovered in a hard-wearing upholstery fabric from .

I just had to share this, maybe one or two of you have already one of Richard's poles fitted, I certainly have these myself in my house.
Beautiful crafted poles with carefully designed brackets and finials.

What a fantastic weekend teaching my Dressmaking Beginners class! ✂️✨

I had such a lovely group of ladies—great energy, lots of laughs, and a real sense of teamwork from start to finish.

We tackled some tricky pattern tracing, got to grips with handling and cutting jersey fabric (never as simple as it looks!), and built confidence using sewing machines.
We also worked through size adjustments to get the perfect fit—and I’m so proud to say we ended the weekend with four finished t-shirts! 🙌

So much progress in just a couple of days, and such brilliant chemistry between everyone. It’s always amazing to see skills grow alongside confidence.
Thank you all for making it such a fun and rewarding weekend 💛

Yesterday was my first monthly upholstery class at the Linton village hall and what a fantastic session it was!

It was great to see everyone dive into their projects, no matter the stage they were at.

Amanda brought along a small chair she’d started at home and felt stuck on — by the end, she’d worked through the tricky parts and made brilliant progress, almost finished.
Sue and Sue were busy transforming their dining chairs, finishing two and, more importantly, leaving with the confidence to carry on the rest at home.
Cheryl got started on a much bigger project and headed home full of ideas (and a bit of homework to keep her going!).
That’s exactly what these sessions are all about — building skills, confidence, and making real progress on projects that matter to you.

If you fancy joining me for the next session on 24th May, I’d love to have you there. Just follow the link below to book your spot and for more information.

What a transformation.
This beautifully reupholstered armchair has been completely transformed from its former floral finish into a timeless, elegant piece. The gorgeous linen by adds texture and sophistication, while the removal of the skirt reveals the legs for a lighter, more refined look.

Carefully restored and finished with classic button detailing, this chair is as comfortable as it is stylish—perfect for a reading corner, bedroom, or statement piece in a living space.

A one-of-a-kind piece, ready to go home.
