Hi and welcome to The Old Button Sews, where I sell beautiful gifts designed and sewn by me. Special commissions are welcome - just click the "contact" button above.

I also sell craft kits and fabric supplies - and am moving them across to my new shop The Old Button Supplies - search for me on Folksy.

My collection started as a child with an old button box and some vintage embroidery threads given to me by my late grandmother. Over the years I have collected many vintage and retro items (note I only cut into pieces that are too damaged or marked to be used in their original form) as well as a whole sewing room full of bits and pieces.

I decided I would use some of this collection to create curated boxes for the newly re-discovered art of slow stitching. Get yourself a cup of tea, and relax with a needle and thread.

Full description

Goth meets Steampunk - my mismatched stitching kits are stuffed with rich fabrics and trims in purples, greens and black, offset with hints of antique gold and cream. Why not make a moody textile art picture for yourself, or gift the box to a teenager who wants to start the relaxing art of slow stitching or junk journalling.

Perfectly imperfect - tthe same standard as my curated kits, these are made up from a mix of fabrics and trims left over from themes that have now sold out.

In your box you will have a foundation fabric cut from vintage black denim jeans, plus a piece of grey or cream canvas that can be used as an accent, or as a foundation for a smaller project. The decorative fabrics and trims in each box will vary - the photos show some examples

- raw silk from an old wedding dress

- silk ribbons - offcuts from the sari manufacturing industry

- floral cotton prints from preloved clothes or offcuts from patchwork projects

- a scrap of antique Welsh quilt

- different coloured pieces of lace - vintage, reclaimed and deadstock

- crocheted lace in black and cream

- velvet and satin ribbons

- metallic and beaded braids

- cords and faux leather thong

- hand dyed linen yarn and fluffy yarns

- pre-loved buttons

Plus my stitch guide and introduction to slow stitching, some pins and a needle and 4 lengths of embroidery thread in different colours.

Designed by Sharon Lloyd in my attic sewing room in Bridgend, South Wales
