WHAT TYPE OF CLOTHING CAN I SEND? 

I can use most types of clothing and fabrics - the only exception is materials that are too thick to go through a domestic sewing machine, like really thick denim, leather or furs with thick linings. And it's not just clothing I can use. Some peole have sent bedding, curtains, fabric from play mats and baby bouncers - your imagination is your only limit!  If ordering a bear, please keep in mind that large writing or motifs might not fit on the small pieces that I need to cut. If you are unsure about any of the items you want to use, just pop me a message with a photograph attached and I can help.

WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ITEMS FOR THE KEEPSAKE I'D LIKE TO ORDER? 

Please pop me a message and we can chat it through. Whether it be adding in some extra fabric, resizing the patches I cut from your clothes or making a bespoke size - there is usually a way around it!

CAN I SEND SMALLER ITEMS SUCH AS HATS, SOCKS AND BIBS? 

Absolutely! Baby's first hospital hat, those teen tiny socks or that stained bib that they started weaning in all make perfect additions to you keepsakes. However, please note that these items should be sent in addition to the minimum number of items required for each keepsake.

CAN I HAVE INPUT ON THE DESIGN OF MY KEEPSAKE? 

Absolutely! I will always work carefully to include the special parts of the clothing you send, but if you have any special requests then please do let me know. I will do everything I can to make your ideas work.

HOW DO I CHOOSE WHICH ITEMS TO SEND? 

This really is a personal choice, although a mixture of prints and plainer pieces works nicely to make sure your keepsake doesn't look too busy.  Think about which items mean the most to you - the coming home outfit, the first steps, the first time they met family etc. Not all keepsakes are perfectly styled and colour coordinated, but the memories held within them are perfectly precious - and that's what they are all about!

I WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE A KEEPSAKE AS A GIFT BUT CANNOT GET THE COTHING, WHAT CAN I DO? 

Keepsakes make the perfect presents for baby showers, christening, baby's first birthday or to support a friend who has lost a loved one. If you would like to gift a keepsake but cannot get the clothing, a gift card is the perfect solution. Gift cards can me written for any amount and are valid for two years from purchase. Please contact me to arrange.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEE A BLANKET AND A QUILT?

Blankets comprise of a blanket top, made from the clothing you send, and a fleece backing. Quilts are sandwiched with a layer of premium quality wadding and backed with cotton (or fleece if you prefer). Quilts have a thicker, heavier and more luxurious feel - a truly special keepsake with added quality.

ARE YOUR KEEPSAKES SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN?

Because your keepsakes are made from you precious clothing, I am unable to CE safety test them - I would need to burn the clothes you send to do so! Whilst I take every precaution to make my keepsakes as safe as possible, please note that they are sold as keepsakes and NOT toys. They are unsuitable for play and are for display purposes only. They should NOT be left alone with a child under the age of 14.
