goodmakes now has an ETSY shop in order to reach more customers… you can visit it at this link:

Here are some photos of products in the store looking super cute!
Also watch this space for a sneak peak of a new fabric printed on warm jersey material, in winter colour-ways, designed with refugees in our latest workshop.
goodmakes had a stall at the Highgate Fair to test sales of our little trousers and guess what? We sold just over half our stock in 3 hours and had to took a bunch of email orders as there was a token payment system that our (cash) stall was not included in.
Thanks to everyone who came over to chat with us, I feel so energised by the positive response to the fabric designs and the goodmakes social enterprise concept.
Here is a big shout out to all those little legs wearing goodmakes trousers since the fair! Spread the love little people <3
The sun is shining and the summer holidays are almost here! Take a trip to the seaside with this beautiful new “sleepy whale” fabric design in shades of blue, complete with shoals of fish, seaweed and a sleepy little whale.
goodmakes playpants are great for the beach, helping to shade little legs from the sun and keep them cool with loose breezy styling made from light organic cotton fabric.
Take a trip over to our online shop to order a pair for your holiday!
Named after the Aylmer Pantry where I ran the first goodmakes design workshop, I am excited to present the very first goodmakes playpant – the “Aylmer”!
Made from a whimsical fabric designed by mothers, inspired by their shared stories of motherhood, the “Aylmer” was printed in Manchester on organic cotton and sewn by mothers in London.
Buying these trousers supports not only mothers and their children but the British manufacturing industry… so take a stroll over to our online shop for sizes and prices.
And… the biggest, huggiest thank you to everyone who has supported me through the start-up process, your friendship, time and advice are invaluable and you have all my love and gratitude!
