About me

Hi my name is Tracey, I am a self taught seamstress, I have always had a passion for beautiful fabrics and the unique things you can
make from the different types. I specialise in using top quality British wool tweeds from British woolen mills such as Abraham Moon, Fabworks woolen mill, &  Kingcraig fabrics in the highlands of Scotland, as well other woolen mills throughout the UK. I also use locally sourced upholstery fabrics and leather for all of my bags and accessories.
By shopping with me you will be supporting me & my small business and NOT a large mass produced supplier. 
I design the patterns, cut the fabrics and stitch everything myself.

I am more than happy to consider custom orders in any of the bag styles I make, please send me message via my contact me tab so we can start work on your special bag

BAGS of Elegance came about in 2011 when I decided to make a complete career change ( I was in mainstream retail for over 35 years ), and follow my dreams of using my creative design and sewing skills to set up  my own business.
My sewing room is my spare bedroom in our bungalow, although I do seem to take over the whole house at times !! I love all kinds of fabrics but especially wool tweeds and upholstery fabrics, I use these in small quantities to keep my bag range stylish & unique.
I am proud to have clients from all over the world including The Walt Disney Company France and Harrods. I have been selling via Etsy and Folksy since 2011 and have 5* reviews, but it's now time to branch out with my own website and ecommerce store. 
Thank you for visiting my website & online shop & for supporting a real individual, Me
