My Story

My love affair with sewing began in 2011, fed up with clothing that didn’t fit my body or style. After experiencing the transformative nature of this art and skill, I started creating bespoke garments for others and teaching sewing lessons in 2015. For years I’ve sewn my entire wardrobe, only purchasing undergarments and the occasional piece I’ve loved at first sight. If you’ve ever struggled to love your body or feel good in your clothes, I’ve been there and would love to work with you!
