Meet the Maker

My journey in the world of sewing started at the age of eight with the delicate art of hand embroidery. By the time I was twelve, I progressed to constructing my own clothes with a sewing machine. Over half a century of crafting with needle, thread, and an array of materials is a testament to my passion for sewing. The variety of items I've created over the years is very diverse and each one a unique expression. For the past few years, I’ve also been sourcing new and old materials that would otherwise end up in a landfill. My sewing room is where imagination and creativity are exercised daily!

How it’s Made

I chose an earthy mustard color that was popular in the 70’s, an upholstery sample fabric, rescued from being put in the landfill. Next, I embroidered a retro flower design onto the sample. Then, I added gems for a little bling. I used a rick rack to edge the pocket, which was an iconic trim at the time. I constructed the bag to be swung across the body via a long, rick rack strap. This crossbody bag is a creative fusion of past and present, blending eco-consciousness with retro fashion.
