A-Z of Gin Tea Towel

All about Mary; Born in Wales.  Living in London.  Spirit in Cornwall.

Mary has always loved sewing, making and design. From a young age at her mummy's knee (where she learnt how to use her Singer sewing machine that she still owns and uses today) Mary studied Fashion and Textiles at Art college, specialising in tailoring, knit and surface pattern. Practical design in its many different forms has always been a huge part of her life.

After graduating from college she worked for ten years designing surface patterns for fabrics, graphics for the labels, and all types of clothes in the fashion business. Mary has travelled the world working in Hong Kong, India and Europe, and sourcing inspiration in America and Japan. 

Mary works from a hut in the garden 'Mary-land' - lots of exciting and creative stuff goes on in there. This is where her gin print and candle offshoot was conceived.  Mary loves creating new designs, especially when a customer requests something unique.  She enjoys collaborating, and drawing inspiration from the clients ideas to create a special design that they will love and cherish, or will be proud to give away as a keepsake
