About the Author

Alice Garrett of Alice Caroline Fabrics is a designer, entrepreneur and all-round creative. Having completed a PhD in cancer genetics, she started to rediscover her creativity as a maker and designer of dresses, cushions, bags, childrenswear and quilts. Liberty of London Tana Lawn was a natural choice for her projects, with its fine weave, delicate and inventive patterns, and its traditional English heritage. Alice's studio is in a light and airy barn conversion in the tranquil Cotswold hills. Rolls of linens and silks are stashed below the vintage cutting tables, whose previous life was in one of Liberty's regional department stores. She has over 50k followers on Instagram (@alicecarolinefabrics) and is regularly featured in the craft and women's lifestyle press. She lives in the Cotswolds, UK.
