Handmade soft toy trolls

by Hannah on May 4, 2012 • 2 Comments

I’ve started to make these trolls now for friends and family who have young children. I wanted to make something that wasn’t typically “cutsie”, taking inspiration from illustrations I collect, modern crafts magazines, Danish artwork and Scandinavian trolls. First Troll for Jens, he loves it! This one is...

by Hannah on Dec 2, 2011 • No Comments

I’m officially a geek! (holds hands up) Yep I get starstruck at the oddest of times, not when I see the typical ‘famous person’ but actually when I meet truly talented designers and artists. Back in 2009 I went to a wicked warehouse print sale in Shoreditch and met the fabulously creative Rob Ryan, he’s...

Breaking the rules of the patchwork quilt
