The following are just a tiny selection of recent reviews of my work …

Thank you!!!!! my package has just arrived with the yellow bag and pouch and I could not be happier! The bag is PERFECT! I am absolutely delighted! I’m glad that I ordered the slightly larger size (it will be great on my travels) and the matching pouch is a wonderful finishing touch. And I love the ochre yellow colour. This is genuinely the holy grail of bags and I don’t see how it can be bettered in terms of size, shape, materials and quality. I feel as though I’ve spent my whole life looking for it… and feel on cloud nine to have this wonderful addition to my wardrobe/life. Congratulations, once again, on having developed this beautiful design and truly brilliant product.
I’ve just returned from almost 3 weeks travelling across Japan and my Nevis bag was by my side throughout. I ordered it a few weeks before my trip and Anna added extra holes in the strap as I’m on the petite size.
I chose the Nevis as the design meant it was ideal for travelling and keeping documents and money safe and close to you. Made of waxed cotton with a simple yet stylish design, I love the bag and will definitely buy from Anna again.
This was made quickly to order and was just as expected. The quality is great and I can cram a lot of stuff in including my iPad. Have had a lot of lovely compliments.
I ordered two bags, this is the second review.... All I have to say is WOW. Simply beautiful. The craftsmanship, attention to detail and beauty of the leather.... it makes you feel like a million Bucks.
Best bag ever!! I was looking for a bag that could withstand the rainy season here in the Pacific Northwest. I came across this one and knew that I had to have it. It is incredibly well made; holds a lot of stuff (I’m a teacher); is extremely comfortable on the shoulder; is waterproof; and is just an overall amazing bag. I love, love, love this bag and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new tote bag. I will definitely be a return customer.
This purse is the perfect size and is beautifully made!! The canvas/leather combo is a nice contrast and I really like the lining. I get so many compliments and absolutely love it! Thank you for sending so quickly.
This bag is perfect. I bought it for a trip to New York and it has very quickly become my favourite bag. It’s beautifully made and is secure with the zip and the strap length can be adjusted easily. It is the perfect size, and held my guide book, purse, phone and lip balm without being crowded. It’s a great colour too and looks good with everything. And to make things even better, Anna is an absolute pleasure to deal with.
This is such a dinky and cleverly made item. I got this to carry little treats for my dog when we are on our walks and it’s so handy. I will be buying some more for my dog loving friends.
Wow! The bag arrived this morning. It was made custom size with a few additions like easy pull zips , as a gift for my elderly mother for Xmas. It’s so beautifully made with great attention to detail. Anna was a joy to converse with and super helpful. This bag is so lovely, I may need to treat myself now! Thanks so much anna, my mum is going to love it xx
Great little bag, exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a small purse to fit my small wallet, my phone, my keys, dog treats, dog bags and lipstick. This does exactly that with a little extra room for other small things. I like the texture and feel of the waxed canvas. I also like that I can detach the strap and throw it all in a bigger bag when needed. Excellent craftsmanship. I’m really pleased!
I’ll definitely purchase more from this maker!
I love this handbag. It’s the perfect size for traveling and for running through soft play structures with the kids. It shipped really quickly from the time it was finished and the shop owner was a great communicator.
It is absolutely gorgeous!! The details are exquisite. I am so thrilled. Order this bag for summer, you will not be disappointed. Throw it in your suitcase or use it daily.... either way, you’ll get compliments wherever you go! Will be ordering more items!
