Welcome to my little space on the internet. I am Anne Gilginas and I live on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand in a small community called Ruatapu. I have a studio with a painter (Peter Keane.) This is my Happy Place where I love crafting with fabric, mostly using woolen blankets that hanker back to my past. I am an avid opportunity (thrift store) shopper and many of my finds are used to embellish my creations which makes them lovely to touch and look at.

I have been interested in arts & crafts from a very young age. In the 80s I had my own clothing label for a while in New York which won some awards. Later I created my own clothing store in Queenstown, New Zealand. In all this time I have done many things ranging from wearable arts competitions to crafting, creating and thinking about new projects.

I thank you for visiting my shop and hope that you fall in love with one of my creations and that YOU can have a little part of my imagination on a couch, bed, chair or whatever part of your world. I am always willing to create special orders so feel free to send me an email with your ideas and concepts and I'll look after you.

Thanks for reading,

Anne
