Alice Jemima


My mum has just opened an Etsy store called Alice Jemima (Alice Jemima was my great great grandmother and postmistress of the Bothwell Post Office). It is from my mum that I get my creative genes (sorry, dad, but it's true- from you I got my love of straight lines and an odd fascination with macramé).  For as long as I can remember my mum has been creative, whether it was sewing, writing or painting. When I was little she would sew clothes for my dolls, help me make paper dolls and always encouraged my creative outlets. Sew So now I would like to return the favour. If you have a moment pop on over and take a look at the lovely Christmas angels and handmade doily dolls. There will be more items listed over the next few weeks, including both handmade & vintage.

Alice Jemima is a great name, and what a fantastic way to celebrate your maternal lineage, and a mother-daughter tradition of creating! So lovely...
