Meet the maker Alix Beech

I live in Portsmouth, on the South Coast of England.

I specialise on handmade buttons - specifically the Dorset Button technique and I use gorgeous colours and colour combinations.

I also make fabric accessories including my tiny pocket pigs which combine my love of fabric with a touch of whimsy. The pigs's personality develops as they are sewn, so it is not to the end that you can see what sort of pig they might be.

Everything in my shop is made with care and attention to detail.

I love to make custom buttons. So if you want a certain colour, or think you do, then get in touch. I use quality DMC and Anchor threads so I have many colours to choose from.

I am a friendly person so please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding my items, postage or anything else

I accept Paypal. Please pay quickly but if you cannot pay with 12 hours of purchase please let me know. I do not mind waiting for a payment as long as you communicate.

If you wish to pay any other way, please let me know.

Postage will be First Class within the UK and airmail to international destinations.
I post internationally and each item should have an international shipping price.

I am happy to refund if an item is not as described. However, items must be returned to me within 7 days of purchase.

Please let me know if the item arrives to you damaged. I take care with my packaging but things do happen in the post.
