Rosemary Davidson has worked as a publicist and editor at Bloomsbury and Vintage, Random House where she launched the Square Peg imprint in 2008. Taught by her Glaswegian seamstress grandmother, she started to make her own clothes as a teenager. She continues to sew and knit and has recently added pottery to her craft activities. She lives in Hackney and doesn't like curtains, can't drive a car or use a drill. And she can't crochet or felt either. But she's willing to learn.

Sarah Vine is a writer and editor at The Times. Currently she is Beauty Editor, but over the years she has been (in no particular order) a sub-editor, Arts Editor, leader writer and general all-weather commentator.

She also co-authored The Great Big Glorious Book for Girls. Sarah lives in West London with a wonderful husband, two naughty children and an even naughtier Jack Russell.
