17th Jan Sheila Pearson Bags and Belts

Sheila with some of her lovely belts.
We were delighted to welcome Sheila Pearson, a local craftswoman, who regaled us with her personal journey from a passion to break free of childhood family constraints on her creativity to entering the  fashion world. This ultimately led to her amazing leather bags and belts business - none of us will ever look at a belt without an appreciation of the work that goes into them - especially Sheila's bespoke, ruched, works of artistic wonder.


Sheila explained about her unique way of achieving these leather embellishments.


A selection of bags made by weaving strips of leather and a belt - look closely for the ruching.
