10 Minutes With The Maker: Sandra Talbot

10 Minutes With The Maker: Sandra Talbot

Hi! My name is Sandra James-Talbot and I’ve been a maker all my life. My grandmother taught me to knit, crochet and embroider before I started school, and like many women of her generation, my mum was a dedicated dressmaker. When I grew up in the '70s mum regularly received bargain packs of fabrics in the post, and made dresses for herself, my sister and I. I sew and knit because it makes me feel closer to both of those wonderful women who shared their skills and passion with me.

Black Friday; or should we say Bright Friday?

Black Friday; or should we say Bright Friday?

It’s that time of year when people go crazy, almost desperate in their attempts to barge their way to the front of the queue in the hope of finding a bargain. Who can get something for nothing and tell everyone in the following days, weeks & months just how much of a bargain it was… At Fabworks, we’re not ones to jump on the bandwagon, if anything we want to be different...

Textiles Is In The Blood

I am Dawn, Fabworks Online product specialist & description writer. This is my own story & sentiment for the inspiration behind our recent Heart of Huddersfield project

People often ask where I get my inspiration from when writing Fabworks’ fabric descriptions. I always say that I am inspired by many things especially nature, particularly the landscape and flora and fauna within. I am a proud Yorkshire woman and I was blessed with parents and grandparents that were also born and bred Yorkshire, who instilled in me an appreciation for Yorkshire’s countryside as well as its people, plants and animals.

You Show Off You!

You Show Off You!

We’re absolutely loving seeing what people are creating with the gorgeous wools from our Heart of Huddersfield range of Yorkshire tweeds. In fact, we’ve even featured a couple already in our posts. Well we were raving about these and suddenly thought, wouldn’t it be lovely to make more of this! After all what greater pleasure is there when you’ve made something new and you’re bursting with excitement over it, than other people seeing it and hearing them cooing over your work?

Bag making with Yorkshire Tweed. As a maker of bags, my fabric radar is almost always set to ‘tweed’, its like I can smell it!

Bag Making With Yorkshire Tweed

Hi, I'm Emma & I make bags. Here's a short piece written by me for Fabworks about bag-making using the new Heart of Huddersfield range of wool tweeds.

As a maker of bags, my fabric radar is almost always set to ‘tweed’, its like I can smell it! I was once driving back from a sewing weekend in Malhamdale, stopped for coffee in the middle of nowhere and discovered a small quilting shop with a whole wall full of the stuff. Heaven! I love using wool, not only can I stitch it on my domestic sewing machine, but it is also hard-wearing and water resistant, which means that it is the perfect alternative to leather for the home sewist when bag making.
