Gertrude Anna- Get Your Nostalgia in Cuddly Form

More retro textiles from my old work pal Timmy White AKA http://www.gertrudeanna.co.uk/

He's currently working on costume design for a movie, but keep your eyes on the Facebook for news of his pop-up stalls, Edinburgh-based readers. Don't be shy in 'liking' the business page, Timmy is very friendly & posts lots of childhood-memory-jogging photos of the fabrics he uses.

Ewok Cushions from Gertrude Anna

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... Well seven years ago in Belfast, I worked in a magical, little ,quirky fashion boutique called Liberty Blue. One of my coworkers was Timmy White, now the guy behind the twee brand Gertrude Anna.

Timmy lives in Scotland now and handmakes all sorts of bits and pieces from retro fabrics, including duvet covers you may remember if you're an 80s child.

He also specialises in interior design for small businesses, and costume design. A bit of a Jack of all trades with a sewing machine.
