Textiles Information
Maker
I have been sewing for most of my life, starting at the age of six, armed with the Ladybird book of knitting and a determination to make anything I could imagine I set off to conquer the world. My style is inspired by the magic of the 70s — a childhood of orange, brown, and ditsy floral cottons, and a quieter world before technology took over. It has been a love affair of 50 years, and I still love every stitch.
I make small-batch and limited-edition pieces, so you’ll find that each dress or jumper is unique. Some may never be repeated, and each is made slowly, with attention and intention, designed to bring a little of that wonder and whimsy into everyday life, helping you feel at home in your clothes.
Sizing
I provide detailed measurements rather than standard size names. To find your best fit, compare a favourite garment to the measurements listed in each product. Some like their dresses loose, others prefer a closer fit.
Materials
All garments are made using natural fabrics, often sustainable deadstock cottons, linens, or mixed fibres in knitwear for easy care. Every piece is finished to a professional standard — no unfinished seams here.
Care
Dresses are made with pre-washed, pre-shrunk materials. I recommend machine washing at 30 and line drying (avoid tumble drying) - pop your pinny on and peg it out!
Knitwear should be handwashed gently - laid flat to dry.
Delivery
All textiles are ready-made. Please allow 1 - 3 days for dispatch.
Shipping is available to England, Scotland, Wales, USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Shipping rates are shown at checkout, and full tracking details are provided when your order is dispatched.
International customers are responsible for any customs charges incurred on arrival. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to ship to European countries.
USA customers:
Orders are sent via the Royal Mail PDDP scheme, allowing parcels to move smoothly through customs. Usual customs charges may still apply, as before.
In the unlikely event that your parcel arrives damaged, please do not discard the packaging. Photograph the parcel before opening, as this is required to submit a claim. Without this evidence, a claim cannot be processed.
If your parcel does not arrive, please contact the postal service using the tracking number supplied at dispatch.
Returns
Due to the nature of handmade garments and for hygiene reasons, I’m unable to accept returns or exchanges on clothing.
Please check all measurements and details carefully before purchasing, I recommend taking a favourite fitting garment and comparing the measurements above with it. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions — I’m always happy to help.
Handcrafted in my West Country woodland studio
Every dress and piece of knitwear at Fairysteps is made slowly by hand, using natural fabrics & wool blend yarns in small batches. Designed for everyday wear, each piece carries a little of the joy, comfort, and quiet magic of a slower, more mindful life.
