Celebrating Miffy’s 70th anniversary, the gorgeous new Miffy Picture Book Collection by Liberty Japan brings together the timeless world of Dick Bruna with the unmistakable charm of Liberty.
Inspired by the very first Miffy picture book published in Japan in 1964, the collection pairs Dick Bruna’s iconic six-colour palette with beautiful archival Liberty designs a joyful meeting of simple, graphic design and Liberty’s creative flair.

Look at this rather beautiful lot
We are in complete awe
The incredibly talented mother of the bride, Anja Baak, made this gorgeous Peonie dress by Fabric Godmother in the most exquisite Liberty silk, bought from Clothkits. What an incredible make every detail is just so delicious.
And then there’s the bride, @piepsbaak, a talented fashion designer who made her own dress too. Just stunning.
What an extraordinarily talented family.
Thank you for letting Clothkits be a tiny part of such a wonderful wedding

Running low on fabric = running low on happiness. It’s basically science! Luckily, we know a place with plenty…

Pop into our Chichester shop or have a browse online and give your fabric stash the top-up it clearly deserves.

Anyone else emotionally dependent on having a slightly ridiculous amount of fabric at home? 😅

We’re looking for a new Clothkitten! 🧵 After 14 wonderful years, our lovely Karen is retiring, which means we have a space opening up in our small team here in Chichester.

We’re looking for a Full Time E-Commerce Fulfilment & Customer Service Assistant to help with everything from picking and packing online orders to customer service, stock management and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

You don’t need to be a sewing expert (although an interest in sewing and textiles is always a bonus!). We’re looking for someone friendly, organised, reliable and happy to get stuck in.

Sound like you or someone you know? Send your CV and a few words about yourself and why you’d like to join the Clothkits team to

📩 info@clothkits.co.uk

We had a rather special visitor yesterday, lovely Lydia. She stopped by on her way to Goodwood Revival. She had time for a chat and a little shop!
It was such a joy to see you ☺️
If you’d like to discover how Lydia brings print, textiles and dressmaking together in her wonderfully creative work, head over to our Creative Threads Journal to read her inspiring story.
We loved having you with us.
