Aluma is the name of the designer whose work we are admiring today. She is a one woman force who hand makes every garment. Her style is truly unique and recognisable. We give you Aluma Handmade.

Looking for sewing inspiration? In the current issue of Love Sewing Magazine, there is great pencil skirt made from our Orange and Yellow Birdcage Ankara. We totally agree that skirts are such a great way to rock a bold and bright print. You can then colour block with a nice top, t-shirt or blouse.
Our Fabric of the Week is what we have called the Pink and Green Eyes Ankara. The gorgeous contrast of colours really do just pop! This print is 100% cotton and is manufactured in Ghana. If you want to see it ‘in action’, the designer Ohema Ohene has a few summer pieces in the print. …
