I haven't bought anything (yet) but I remember when her cheese bag was copied, replicated and sold for 1/3rd of the price, and she was (rightly) so upset about it. A bunch of us linked up and made sure the replicas were reported to support her, but it really wasn't enough because they were mass produced and dropshipped on a popular site. Some customers just see 'cute' and don't realise the quality difference between the original and the rep. It's terrible that artisans like her can't promote their unique designs because someone's ready to jump in there and steal it from a picture that's been posted.
I have her on my wish list for a custom bag for when I hit a specific milestone. I've communicated with her about it and she's lovely. Based on what I've seen of her work, her creativity and how neatly she finishes each bag, I'd say this is someone totally worth buying from.
If you buy one, please do post it for us, @Christofle.

But yes if I do order something it’s most likely going to be for a gift.
