Savana Lawler Textiles
Torbay, Devon
Hello! I'm Savana and I live in Torbay with my husband, Ryan, and my tiny person, Ted. I specialise in hand sewn (no sewing machine to be seen round here!) gifts and décor and every order is designed and sewn by me!
I studied Textiles at Bath Spa University and learnt everything from pattern cutting to print, but hand embroidery was where my heart truly lied! I have been fortunate enough to work with some amazing fellow Textiles artists in London and have even contributed some of my Textiles skills to a fashion collection showcased at London Fashion Week! As incredible as these experiences were, I decided that the fashion industry wasn’t for me and I wanted to set up my own small business so that I could go at my own pace and have complete creative control!
It's hard to pin down what inspires me as I find inspiration all around me - my ideas can pop into my head out of nowhere! I love to play with colour and texture and like to match colours that wouldn’t conventionally ‘go’ together! I get a lot of inspiration from kitsch and mid-century styles and love nothing more than a good rummage around car boot sales and charity shops for fabrics, haberdashery and vintage treasures.
