Spotted!

A Sinclair C5* - parked on double yellas, outside Nandos, St Andrews St, Cambridge. Cambridge actually is cool!

Why on earth didn't they catch on?

*If you are too young or weren't in the UK in the early 80's you may need to google this.

Drying on the line

We took advantage of the springlike weather this week and dried our latest Queens Jubilee Shoppers on our clothesline. The sun was shining, birds singing, blossom out - idyllic.

Stabo Satchels

These are the latest products for Stabo's Men's Stall at Spitalfields on Sundays. You can also see them in Cambridge on Saturdays.

They are made from 'end of line leather', we can only make one or two out of each piece of leather and they are all a bit different. As they are one-offs they're not on the website (to avoid possible disappointment) but if you're interested drop us a line and we can help you out.

New camera bags

We made a camera bag for a customer. Here are a few more for the stall. We may make them a stock product.

We are happy to make other products to order, just let us know.

new products on stabo mens stall

We have been working hard on bringing out some new designs for our mens stall.

All the new products are made from veg tan leather we have pigmented or stained.

New products include wallets, i phone 4 holders, passport holders, key blankets and card holders.

All these products are available from opur Spitalfields stall.

On the milk

We did the Merge Craft Fair, Oundle in December. Lucy Anne Harding was one of the stall holders. I loved her work. She studied art but lives on the family farm and does their milk round.

These experiences 'on the milk' inspire her work. Her images are of the doors and people she sees on her round the jottings in her milk book and so forth. Her website www.lucyanneharding.co.uk is well worth a look.

Wishing you the best for 2012

We always get a bit behind over Christmas and last year was no exception, but we've got lots to look forward to in 2012.

So here's a quick preview of our plans for 2012;
-realising some of the new products we've been dreaming about
-moving over to biodegradable lightweight mailing bags and using gorgeous royal blue tissue paper to wrap the mail order products
-uploading the products we've had on the stall for a while to the website
-experimenting with a new mens stall at Spitalfields

So watch this space, all the best for 2012 and above is a preview of a new web product - the trouser pocket saving key blanket.
