I'm an artist, sewist, and small business owner. My passion is making functional art. Furniture, fashion, soft furnishings, and so on. I love creating, upcycling, and bringing my imagination to life.

Sewing Tip of the Day: Any project can be a beginner project.
It might not turn out to be a masterpiece, but you have to start somewhere, and it might as well be something you really want to make.

After a little research, we were able to make a pattern for this adorable bouncer seat. He wanted to keep the patina on the frame and remake the seat with the original color of the canvas, bringing back a piece of nostalgia for this customer.
