Miscellaneous Details:
* Pattern by Sewgnar, with a few modifications *
* A little information about the Cork used in this product (info from Fabric Funhouse) : *
Cork is harvested from the Cork Oak Tree, which grows primarily in the West Mediterranean Basin. Portugal is the largest cork producer, containing one third of the world's Cork Oak population. Cork harvesting in Portugal is regulated by law to protect the valuable resource and regulate the quality of the harvest. When the Cork Oak has reached 20 years of age, the bark is stripped from the tree by the hands of a highly skilled harvester. That tree is then marked so that it will not be harvested for another 8-10 years.
The Cork Oak is the only tree that benefits from the removal of its bark and, since it regenerates, it is truly an eco-conscious and sustainable natural resource. In fact, the same tree can be harvested every 8-10 years for over 200 years! Once harvested, the tree absorbs about 5 times the CO2, making harvesting an important process in reducing greenhouse gases.
Once the cork is harvested from the Cork Oak it is boiled, dried, shaved into thin sheets and sealed with a non-toxic sealant. Once the cork fabric is complete, it is stain-resistant, water-resistant, scratch-proof, hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, lightweight, incredibly soft, and is also resistant to abrasion, fire, and water. This dry bark material is naturally flexible, so unlike leather it needs no conditioning over time. The best part is that you can wash it with soap and water and keep it clean!

Meet the Maker
I was originally born in London and emigrated to the United States with my husband in 1995. After packing up our new puppy, (we had only had her a week), and few meager sewing supplies, some fabric and of course the sewing machine, I made the plane ride to a country that previously, I had only visited.
I started Talfourd Jones after sewing and designing clothes for myself. Over time, the client base grew as business associates and friends saw what I was wearing and wanted clothing made for them. Some of my designs have been worn to functions at the White House and I specialize in both formal and casual wear.
The Talfourd Jones Collection developed when I was looking to purchase a knitting bag, but none of the bags were exactly what I was looking for, and from there it snowballed into making knitting accessories, handbags, makeup bags and other personal accessories.
The fun of the Talfourd Jones Collection, is the journey of putting fabrics, designs & colours together, primarily using home decorating fabrics, upholstery fabrics and quilting fabrics for the linings. The findings are of excellent quality purchased in NY & CA and the fabrics are generally limited editions so my clients receive new and exciting fabrics on each item. Significant effort is put into choosing the correct fabrics to coordinate with the correct lining, the style and material in the handles, to the colour of the bags' findings, nickel, brass or antique gold, to which exterior button & bead will work perfectly for that specific item & that particular fabric colour story. All the sewing and designing is done in house, by me, with bags taking between 5 to 15 hours depending on the style and the accessories taking between 1-2 hours. I only purchase 1 yard pieces of fabric, so when they are finished I try not to purchase them again, this gives you, the customer, the feeling that what you are purchasing a OOAK piece.
The bags are named after women who have made an impact in my life, ranging from my mother, my stepmother & my mother-in-law, to my sister & step sister, to my best friends and finally to my dogs.
Thank you very much for taking the time to look at the Talfourd Jones Collection.
