Us Ballad Girls are spending far too much time hanging out over at Jimmy & Alfie’s when we should be “don’t forget to write” – ing, shame on us! But once you take a wander over there you won’t blame us…

Jimmy the fox spent his youth roaming the countryside. Over field and folly he developed a love for all things handmade. After a stint on Skye playing his fiddle, he hitched a ride to York and erected his tent, darned a quilt of disused clothes and set up camp with Alfie; a gypsy loving mutt with a Dickensian swagger. Alfie had spent his last years roaming the cemeteries of Europe collecting vintage fabrics and fashioning pieces all of his own. Over the campfire Jimmy and Alfie cooked up a plan to join forces. They would undertake this next leg of their journeys together and share all of their findings.

The far – too – enchanting – for – words creations, and dreamy posts will get you lost for hours in this Yorkshire forest, so lets don our wellies and join the rasclas! Images above by Ballad fave India Hobson, and below, the one we are lusting after. Jimmy, Alfie, we want to collaborate MAJORLY!!
