Tuesday Talent - Katy Livings

Katy Livings is a very talented young mum of two who trained in embroidery while studying textiles at university.  She tells us that she has been sewing and stitching since she was four years old and that her grandma gave her her love of all things stitched.

Having worked for many large named companies she is using her obvious design skills to create a series of heirloom dolls.  She makes very pretty little ladies but it is her rabbits that have grabbed my attention and make me smile.  Many of her rabbits both boys and girls feature Liberty fabrics and a host of tiny accessories that just make these little creatures even more appealing.

She trades under the name Stitch and Sprig, with a website at http://www.stitchandsprig.com.  She also sells her work through Folksy and offers a commission service with them. There is a gentle Pinterest presence and work to be seen on Instagram but her website offers more details and a chance to view her blog.  Her photographs are lovely and shows you just how well work can be presented.  Have a peep at her work and enjoy, her dolls are beautiful.
