Cornwall based pattern designer, Samantha Hussey- Cornwall based pattern designer, Samantha Hussey- commonly known as Mrs H – could be described as quintessentially British. However with a worldwide following of ‘bagineers’ (fans), her patterns have global appeal! Mrs H is the founder of Sewing Patters by Mrs H and The Bag Retreat. She also co-hosts the Bag of the Month Club and is manager of Swoon Patterns.⁠ ⁠ We recently had the pleasure of catching up with Mrs H to ask her about her latest project and life during lockdown. If you’re after a nice new bag or just looking to try something new then we’d definitely recommend taking a look at Mrs H’s bag patterns.⁠ ⁠ https://www.sofst.org/bag-yourself-a-pattern-patterns-by-mrs-h/⁠ ⁠ @sewingpatternsbymrsh⁠

"I want to push the boundaries further to portray "I want to push the boundaries further to portray my ideas, mixing techniques and materials. My favourite techniques in Stumpwork are wiring, to create depth, and needle lace. ⁠ ⁠ Having completed the course, I now have the confidence to use these techniques to embellish garments and bags. I have gone on to study Felt SS3, another skill I will look forward to incorporating into future projects."⁠ ⁠ Read our latest graduate story from Wendy Oakley⁠ ⁠ https://www.sofst.org/graduate-story-wendy-oakley-stumpwork/ or click the link in our bio⁠
