Quilted Pouch & Journal Gift Set | Ltd Ed Gift For Teachers
The Ultimate Thank You Gift for Teachers: Limited Edition Quilted Pouch & Block Print Journal Set
A little gift with a whole lot of heart. As I step away from teaching after 20 years, this is my love letter to the classroom - one final thank you to the magical world of educators. I’ve poured every ounce of appreciation, nostalgia, and creativity into this special Bombaby bundle, made for the inspiring teachers who shape lives and deserve more than another coffee mug.
Crafted entirely from surplus fabrics, this set is designed with sustainability and spontaneity in mind - no two are ever the same. Think boho, bold and beautifully mismatched… just like the best school days. It's a joyful, elevated alternative to a last-minute gift; thoughtful, useful, and soulfully handmade.
Each set includes:
-
A quilted zipped pouch (rrp £18): Perfect for storing pens, beauty bits, or travel treasures; handmade using our bespoke block prints.
-
A hardback journal (rrp £18): Bound in our offcut fabric with handmade recycled paper inside; each one is an artistic, planet-loving original.
-
A blank Bombaby postcard: Add your heartfelt message of thanks; a keepsake they’ll actually want to keep.
Why it’s special:
Made from the heart: Created in honour of 20 years of teaching, this bundle is my personal thank-you to the profession and all those who keep it alive.
Sustainably soulful: Every item is crafted from leftover fabric - reducing waste, celebrating imperfection, and creating something truly one of a kind.
Surprise and delight: Colours and prints will vary (chosen at random from our exclusive archive), but leave us a note at checkout and we’ll do our best to make magic happen.
Limited-time price: RRP £36 - yours for just £25, because appreciation should never come with a big price tag.
Totally unique: No two pouches or journals are ever the same; this gift is as individual as the teacher you're buying it for.
Celebrate the ones who stayed late, believed harder, and cheered louder; this is the kind of thank-you that goes beyond words.
Ethical | Bespoke | Handmade
Every Bombaby piece is a labour of love, not mass production. Designed in Rutland and handcrafted in Jaipur, our bespoke block print bedding and quilted accessories take 4–6 weeks to create - from hand-blocking and stitching, to quilting and their voyage from India to the UK.
Each fabric is printed to order by skilled artisans using the centuries-old technique of hand block printing - an intricate process where wooden blocks are hand-carved, dipped in natural dyes, and carefully pressed onto fabric, layer by layer. Because of this, you may notice small smudges, ink splashes, or slight variations in the print - these are not flaws, but the hallmarks of true craftsmanship.
To reduce waste, we also use surplus fabrics for linings, piping, and trims - so colours and patterns may vary slightly from batch to batch. This only adds to the bespoke, one-of-a-kind nature of our designs.
Unlike factory-made textiles, no two pieces are ever identical, making your item truly unique. These handcrafted details are a badge of authenticity, celebrating slow fashion, tradition, and artistry.
We also print to order to minimise waste and plant a tree for every purchase, helping to offset emissions.
