Every piece I create is made with second-hand (often vintage) materials -making each piece unique! Occasionally, I will find a large bolt of awesome fabric, with which I am able to make multiple pieces, but my creative drive will cause me to at least make variations :) 

 

When sourcing vintage pieces in particular, I have a deep respect for the history represented and the work represented in their original creation. For this reason, my decision to mend, up-cycle, or recycle is highly influenced by the vintage/condition of each piece. Aesthetically, I am a sucker for the 1960’s/70’s, with patchwork and bellbottoms a staple in my work. 

 

I also know the importance of fit in one’s favorite pair of jeans (particularly around the bum). For this reason, when creating on commission, my priority is to take a client’s measurements and/or find the perfect pair of base jeans. I have heaps of vintage jeans in my collection and welcome a client to supply their own source material. Some clients have commissioned me to make something from a quilt that has been in their family for several generations, others bring beloved items they have acquired and wish to make wearable. 

 

Commissions start at $150. I will provide a quote before beginning work so client and I are on the same page. A deposit of $75 is paid upfront with the remaining balance to be paid upon receipt of garment.

 

I am committed to creating pieces you absolutely LOVE!  Please see commission policies on the About page.
