I share a studio with two other artists in Sunderland Bridge. However, like many people right now, I’m working from my kitchen table!

24 - SHARON DOBSON HANDMADE
|

I love creating unique and beautiful things out of contemporary or vintage fabrics; a pair of hand-stitched curtains or breathing new life into an old chair or footstool. Bespoke things are created for you and your home, to add a touch of luxury, drama and comfort. From curtains and Roman blinds to cushions, lampshades and upholstered chairs, and from footstools to gift items; shoulder bags, smaller cross-body style bags and zipper bags or aprons for toddlers to adults, and lots more.
