Launch of Mill Made’s latest original range: Conny - the shopper
She has finally arrived
Stylish, and practical
Only 37 bags have been made from a single sailcloth, and each one is unique.
Conny the shopper is the perfect shape and size to fill with baking supplies you picked up at the windmill shop, or veggies and cheese from the market.
800th birthday party
The city’s last surviving windmill, Kyck over den Dyck, joined in the fun with specially designed sailcloths.
The Kyck over den Dyck label is sewn on the inside of each bag to certify the canvas origin.
Which section of the windmill sailcloth will your Conny come from?
While the range of shopper shapes and detailing is the same, each upcycled fabric section is slightly different, so the colours and markings on the canvas of your purchase will differ from all the others in the range - each bag is unique
Conny - the shopper was hand-made in South Holland by Emine, a Turkish craftsperson from the Rotterdams Handwerk team of home workers.

We named this carry-all after a very creative local woman who knows absolutely everything about shopping. Conny - the shopper is is named after Conny-Joanna van Klink, retail guru from the Dordrechts Museum, and an early supporter of the Mill Made initiative. Thank you, Conny
