Solstice Days - Information

Welcome to my website, I'm Jo and I live in a small market town in South Yorkshire.

Every item in my shop is made by me, at home, one at a time, using both new and upcycled fabrics to create pretty, practical and pre-loved one of a kind handmade items, made in a smoke free home, when I use pdf patterns then I credit the designer.

From shopping bags, shoulder bags, peg bags, aprons, bunting, quilts, table runners, sewing machine covers, I reuse fabric remnants to make scrunchies, headbands, fabric keyrings, braided rugs and purses for the Sew Powerful Purse Project (information on Charities I support further down this page)

I’m usually sewing with the cats snoozing nearby and a brew on the go, Yorkshire tea of course! I try to post post daily and if you're shopping small, thank you.

<<<PAYMENT & SHIPPING INFORMATION>>>

I accept Stripe and Paypal and you do not need a Paypal account to make payment, you can pay by debit or credit card which will be handled by Paypal, (this will not incur any type of fee).

I pack each order myself, wrapping in tissue paper, tied with string or ribbon, ready to give as a gift and I reuse outer packaging, not as pretty as new but reusing packaging stops it going to landfill.
