Something you might not know:
Sometimes it isn't just sewing...a lot of times it isn't just sewing. The actual construction is probably about only 20-25% of the process.
There's the idea, then designing and planning, then sourcing fabric, then cutting, until finally it all comes together. Did I mention problem solving? Because there's a tonne of that too!
As a one person shop, it can be challenging to keep up the creativity and a little daunting learning new skills like this embroidery software, but I love it and won't stop!
Thanks to all for your continued support!
It means everything!!!!!! 🧡
Enjoy your weekend everyone!!!
SJA Christmas Market 2026!
So nice to see this community event back. (The last one we were at was in 2019!)
Absolutely lovely neighbour vendors!
Did you know that every one of our sassy bags and totes (and everything I put out there) is made from scratch? 🧵🪡
A few people have said, "wouldn't buying them ready made from overseas or the internet be easier and faster?"
Yes it would be both of those things.
But here's the thing.
My clothes and accessories are made by hand. My two hands.
If I'm not sewing it myself, I can't call it handmade and I wouldn't want to put it out into the world.
Someday I might sell things that aren't made by my two hands, but I promise to be open and transparent about it. 🧡
