Vendor Biography

Hello, I’m Barbara the creator of all the textile items that can be found at BarMadeCreations!  After retiring, I started a small business designing, making and selling bags using as much upcycled fabric as possible.  A BarMadeBag was always distinctive in that it featured either an appliqued design or patchwork sections and that continued as I extended my range of products to include items such as pencil cases and rolls, needle cases, jewellery rolls and more.

Recently, I’ve been making textile pictures using tiny offcuts of fabrics to build up the image in a similar way to making a mosaic.  After the fabric pieces are bonded in place to the backing fabric, I add free machine stitching to add further details.  Not all of my originals are for sale online but many of those that aren’t have been printed to produce beautiful prints or greetings cards.

I hope you find something that you admire and would love to own or gift amongst the bags and textile art creations at BarMadeCreations!

Happy Shopping and good wishes, Barbara (designer and maker of all that you see here).
