Liz Shares her Joy! Felt like we were in her home kitchen and Liz was sharing her passion and talents with us. Great spot to stop meet Liz and her team… and purchase her beautiful scarves.

Amazing Tour of such a skilled profession. You walk into the studio and it’s just an explosion of colour and creativity, with lovely welcome and practical demonstrations on every process. Liz and her team are such a wonderful group, who are reinventing the textile scene in Ireland, and protecting the traditional craft in their own unique way.

I received LizzyC Sheep Brooch as a gift and instantly fell in love with it. It is the perfect size! When I originally saw these online I thought that they would be too big for my liking, but it is smaller than I imagined and it fits beautifully on my lapel, scarf and sweater. I always receive compliments when I wear little Patricia. Her fun personality really shines! My husband likes it too and wants to borrow it for St. Patrick’s Day.
