  • I had intended to update this website at the beginning of the year - whatever happened to the past 6 weeks?? It has disappeared so very quickly.

    It has been wonderful having so many past customers come to say hello - and to buy again. I do value the conversations I have with so many people from around the world and from up and down the country. Of course it also means a lot to me that you choose to buy the items that I make and to either take them back to your homes or to give them to people that mean something to you.

    I do have a couple of new wall-hangings and I'll try to get the photos up so that you can see how they would look on your own walls. They are of the native woodpigeon (Kereru) Tui, Pukeko, Fantail (Piwakawaka), and the Morepork (Ruru) owl.

    I look forward to seeing you at the Matakana Market in the Old Dairy Factory.

Welcome to the Greenleas Handcrafts website.

 I sell only from the Matakana Market or directly from home - see the Contact Us page for details.

 All items are made by me in my workroom in Snells Beach from very good quality cotton.

The Art Quilts are original one-off pieces. They are sometimes appliqued, sometimes they are collage with beading, painting, or  layered fabrics. Every one is unique and has a sleeve at the back for the insertion of a rod for hanging.

 The Children's Play Quilts are also individual and colourful made from hardwearing cotton. They are all fully  machine washable.

Kiwiana tableware (table mats and table runners) and wallhangings are attractive, lightweight but hardwearing.

I look forward to seeing you at the Old Dairy Factory, Matakana Market .
