As a team, Alice and I worked together to design, print, and produce these purses.
With these purses, we wanted to create a scene that would work on the side of a purse so that the purse would be practical for everyday use and be a piece of artwork too. You can also buy the screenprint version of the Town & Country Badger.
Badgers are such an enigma; they've regularly featured in my prints, with this one giving you a little wave too. I chose a vibrant green to use with the blue, and the overlays adds the darker green to add the extra details.
The fabric is unique to us, and you cannot buy this fabric anywhere else. We screenprint the fabric, with Alice taking the fabric sheets and making the purses; they are unique and completely handmade.
When we create new fabric and produce the purses with them, they're a fantastic gift for yourself or someone special in your life.
Each purse expresses individuality rather than conformity; this is an unusual and beautiful gift to give and receive.
Please remember that each purse is handmade and unique, so it will never match the main image exactly.
As the larger of the two purses, it is perfect for carrying credit cards, a smartphone, cash, and some make-up for an evening out or just for day to day use. They are also ideal for storing those 'bits and bobs' that end up rolling around at the bottom of a larger bag or to use on a weekend away. If you would like to see the smaller purse, you can find that here.
Traditionally we have used linen to print on, but we appreciate the environmental impact of fabric production. This fabric is made from 100% recycled materials using fibres from plastic bottles and recycled cotton, certified by the ICEA. It feels and looks like linen and is a joy to use for screenprinting and sewing. It's a small step, but we're heading in the right direction.
The purses are padded to keep your goodies more protected, and Alice lines them with complementary blue cotton.
All the purses feature a vintage mother of pearl button on a linen tag. Each button is unique and has a little history of its own.
The 6" zip length purse measures;
height - 13.5cm by width - 18cm, with the zipped opening being 14cm
Please don't wash the purse in the washing machine; it is handwash only!
