Visit Kate's studio where she reinvents materials into beautiful bags, giving them a second life. Bring along a salvaged piece of fabric, a cherished tapestry or handed down linen to play with ideas of how these could be made into a useful bag! Walk away with a handy tote or discuss something more bespoke that can be made together or that Kate can craft for you. This is also an open studio where repurposed bags and items made from train and bus moquette can be purchased.
