Selvedge Spring Fair



It was a bit of a last minute Monday decision but you'll find my work for sale at the Selvedge Spring Fair running today and tomorrow. There's a limited selection as sadly the new collection has been delayed in transit. But as a consolation I'm offering 10% off pretty much everything there so run along and snap up what you can!

There's some lovely makers there again this time and of course the usual Selvedge Drygoods treats! Should be a lovely fair if you can make it.

Chelsea Old Town Hall
London
SW3 5EE

Friday 22nd March, 11am - 5pm, evening preview 6-9pm
Saturday 23rd March, 10am - 4pm.

Anthropologie - Selvedge Pop-Up




I was at the King's Road Anthropologie on Tuesday to run a little drop in workshop making my Matchbox Tweeters. Selvedge magazine had set up in The Gallery for a month, taking a different artist each week to fill the window and run a workshop in the main store. I was delighted to be chosen to be one of the 4 and it was a very fun, very cosy, rather frantic few hours teaching the steps to make a tiny hatchling. We were overwhelmed with interest and tried very hard to cram everyone in so they could take part even if it meant sewing standing up! It looked like they all had fun.. I hope so!

The girls at Selvedge had created a beautiful window display of my current collection and a giant version of the magazine open on my pages from a few years back. I felt so proud seeing them there, I'm such a huge fan of the shop and spent a good while scouring the shop, feasting off every tiny creatively filled corner. There's a few photos to share with you or both the Selvedge Pop-Up, the workshop and the store itself... enjoy!!

Spring Workshop - Make a Little Bird



I'm offering a couple of one day workshops in my London studio.

In the first I will show you how to make your own little bird using a selection of beautiful Spring pastel fabrics and Liberty prints.

I'm not wonderfully skilled at talking to great numbers of people so they will each be a limited number of 5-6 people making for a cosy, intimate afternoon amongst the stacks of fabric boxes and nestling creatures that inhabit my studio.

All materials are supplied to make one little bird for you to take away with you.

Tea & biscuits provided (and I like biscuits so expect good ones!!) but bring your own lunch.

Available dates: Sat March 30th, 11am-5pm
Sun March 31st, 11am - 5pm

£125 per person, 6 people per workshop.

To book email: abigail@abigail-brown.co.uk


100% deposit required at registration. Refunds on cancellations can only be offered if enough warning has been given and a replacement found.
