Last summer Banchory Community Trust launched the Banchory Tartan, designed and made by Lochcarron of Scotland . Initially, we started with the scarf and then added throws before bringing in the fabric (and a Banchory tartan kilt has been made!) The trust also commissioned Northern Nomes and Kindred Makes to provide some nomes, key fobs and keepsake decorations.
The tartan has also inspired other makers in the Studio to incorporate it in some of their work - IvyMatilda has a whole range of items including bookmarks and mug rugs, Lynda at Phoebe's Room Scotland has designed a range of bags and you can commission Tartan Touch to make you a fabulous dress.

Is there anything else you would like to see using the tartan?

New Banchory merchandise in stock now - tea towels, tote bags, magnets and prints are all available in Studio 1.

All designed in collaboration with Kindred Makes, it's a colourful impression of iconic Banchory places with nods to the colours of the tartan.

Meet Lisa, one of our newest volunteers, she is very happy to share all of the things that she loves in store. She has chosen her top three (although I think the pouch may have already made it's way home with Lisa!)

The pouch is by Mabel's Stitches and although this one may have left, there are similar available. Next we have a fabulous colourful tote bag from Repurposed by Georgie - these are all made from recycled materials and they are also one offs, so if you find one you like my advice would be to get it there and then. And finally, perfect for this time of year are these knitted mini pumpkins from IvyMatilda

Studio 1 has always been pleased to stock Deeside Lavender, a product range which referenced the old lavender fields of Banchory so we were very sad when they told us they were stopping all production.
Because we know that you love these lavender products as much as us, we have sourced from Deeside Lavender their remaining stock but when this has gone it's gone for good...our suggestion? Get along to Studio 1 to stock up!
