Agnès's babywearing wrap N° : SM-076 , SM-077, SM-078, SM-079, SM-080, SM-081, SM-082, SM-083, SM-084

Agnès had this baby wrap that had been part of her family's journey for a long time. She didn’t want to part with it and wanted to enjoy it in a new form. So we brainstormed together to make it happen.

Agnès reached out to me to transform her beloved baby wrap—the one that had been with her family for so long—into a collection of handmade pieces, allowing her to enjoy it in a new way.

We listed the different items she wanted: a large messenger bag, a wallet, three pouches, three snoods, and a neck scarf...
I checked that everything could fit within the 4.5m of fabric, we selected the complementary materials (two caramel lambskins and solid-colored vibrant cotton poplins), as well as the hardware, and then I got to work.

A few challenges along the way (the chosen zipper was nearly impossible to find, the leather was too soft), and several dozen hours later, I was able to send all her pieces back to her.

Mission accomplished!

I’ve received all your creations, and they are stunning. I’m so happy. We all had the same reaction: “Wow, this leather is so soft!” I’m such a fan—I never get tired of admiring your work 🥰 The bag is sitting proudly on the windowsill between the kitchen and the hallway, and I find myself gazing at it with love for a good part of my day 😅

Common questions

Can I transform the clothes of a loved one who has passed away, as part of grieving?

Yes, and these are among the most deeply moving projects I get to work on.

Your father's jacket, your grandmother's coat, the jumper you can't bring yourself to give away because it still smells a little like her... These fabrics carry something irreplaceable. Transforming them into an everyday object means giving them life again without erasing them, and for many people, this is part of the grieving process itself: the memory is no longer folded away in a drawer, it's worn, or displayed.

I approach these projects with particular care: we take time to talk about the person, the story behind the fabric, what you want to preserve and how. The finished piece isn't just a bag: it's an object that continues to bear witness.

And if several family members each want a keepsake made from the same garment? That's possible too. One piece of fabric can give birth to several different pieces, for several different people. We look at what the material can offer, together, without wasting any of it.

"What if I’m disappointed? / I’ve had a bad experience before"

Every project is approved step by step with a detailed quote, photos, and regular updates.
Nothing is started without your agreement, ensuring a result that meets your expectations.

"I’m afraid to cut into a sentimental fabric. What if I regret it?"

It’s natural to feel that hesitation. We work together to honor your story.
Each step is validated (photos, video call), and nothing is irreversible until you give the green light.
