Individual Handbags and Vintage Clothing

Hello, my  name is Patricia, and I run Abelia Handbags and Textiles.

I make beautiful bags, from Handbags to Beach Bags, and other items from unusual and vintage fabrics.  Most of the Handbags are made from Harris Tweed, and each piece is unique, because the fabrics are lovingly sourced from the Outer Hebrides, and markets at home and abroad.

Much of my work is in Harris Tweed.  This is a beautiful, hard-wearing fabric that is available in an infinite variety of colours and never goes out of fashion. I now have Irish Tweed as well. Most of these fabrics have been bought directly from the weavers.

Clothing from upcycled Vintage tablecloths and Fabrics.

I now make beautiful and unusual Jackets and Tops from Upcycled Vintage tablecloths and other fabrics. These are all unique and are made in different sizes, from Small to Extra Large.  View in the Vintage category.
