Let customers speak for us
from 665 reviewsLovely hardware from Sew Sofia for the Scarlett hobo bag. So lovely that I ordered them in the other 2 colours.
This is a great pattern - simple to follow and really well designed, and the finished product was perfect gift for my partner.
I had to try this subscription box as soon as I got a sneak peak of the stunning fabrics to make the first bag. It did not disappoint! The box was beautifully packaged and the fabrics stunning. Everything needed to make the bag and bonus accessory was included and the community, especially Louise, is lovely. Looking forward to my next one.
Louise from Sew Sofia was so attentive about getting everything just right for this birthday gift for my partner with lots of correspondence before she crafted my purchase. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sew Sofia and feel that if anyone would like something made to a personal requirement you are going to be extremely satisfied with the overall service and result.
Exceptional as always Louise . Thankyou so much ❤️ the box was a little bashed , but on opening all was intact and perfectly wrapped as you always do so well . Thankyou again and looking for next purchase xx
Another superbly made item .
Bought for a friend who travels a lot .
Nice addition of card slots and a pen holder.
SewSofia, what can I say, excellent customer service, prompt delivery, carefully and thoughtfully packaged. The bag is absolutely perfect. The standard of craftsmanship is second to none. Excellent value for money and will be the first of many purchases I'm sure.
Thank you
This is the third thing I have bought from Se Sofia... Always exceptional quality in the making and fabrics/materials used. Very happy
An excellent hand made artist brush roll. It was beautifully wrapped and delivered with a personal touch. Perfect for gifting. Thank you!
My fave design,so cute! Holds quite a lot, it's fab!
Such a beautiful print and it holds loads!
Such a fab design, love it and use it every day!
Absolutely perfect, will be for my daughter at Christmas. As always Louise delivers quickly exactly as she says, beautifully wrapped and finished. Thank you again.
Really good detailed pattern. I'm really pleased with the results of the bag, it's a good size, practical and is really nice to look at.
