Handmade Embroidered Sandcastle Fabric Flags
My embroidered gingham flags are handmade by me in Devon, inspired by the places we love.
From seaside towns and beaches to your favourite little corner of the world, I can embroider your chosen place name onto a gingham flag - making a lovely little keepsake for your home, garden or holiday memories.
Choose from my ready-made local designs, or get in touch to create a custom flag for somewhere special to you.
Handmade to order, with each one cut, sewn and embroidered by me.
