Welcome to the world of Black Cat!

A big hello to everyone!  I have finally decided to start a blog on the upsides, downsides, and downright silly sides to running my own business.  I hope that it will prove a therapeutic process for me (!), and an entertaining one for you!

Black Cat Textiles was born of my love of crafting in the summer of 2012.  A friend was searching for some cushions, and had a very firm idea of what she wanted.  I offered to make her some, and she was delighted to accept! 

Cue much squealing - bless her, she had no idea that I could a) sew and b) work from a rather vague but specific brief.  From this point, she recommended me to several other people, who I made bespoke curtains and cushions for. 

I love to create beautiful things for people, and use a lot of applique and free machine embroidery.  Over the space of a few months, I started to develop my own style, rather than being constricted by the requirements of others!  Thus, Black Cat Textiles was born.
