Sue Wright Canvas & Leather

Imagine owning a custom made handbag or animal harness that is crafted on a pre-1890's Scottish made Singer industrial sewing machine....

Sue Wright custom makes an amazing variety of canvas and leather goods on just such a machine. This distinctive machine is operated by a treadle, and is able to sew in every direction.  Sue believes she has just about every type of needle available for her machine, and she probably has enough to last a lifetime.

Just about anything you could think of that's made from leather or canvas, Sue can make it - including handbags, dog beds, travel bags, pouches for mobile phones, tools and keys, animal harnesses and belts.

Sue's passion for restoring useful items is evident at her home where lovingly restored motor vehicles, tools and equipment and even a vintage bus called Miriam, can be found.

Because Sue doesn't subscribe to the throw-away society ideals, she repairs many types of pre-loved canvas and leather items, ranging from horse rugs and harnesses to shoes, boots, tarpaulins for utility vehicles, luggage, upholstery, motorcycle gear and oilskin clothing.

Sue and partner Tony, work from their property Talisman, situated at Blanchards Road, Brogo. She can be contacted on Tel: (02) 6492 7319.
