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

"I can’t afford it"

Payment in 4 installments is possible.
For bespoke orders, I can also spread the creation stages over several months.

What kinds of objects can you create, beyond bags and wallets?

Probably more than you'd imagine!

Here's what I can make from your sentimental fabrics:

Leather goods: backpack, crossbody, belt bag, handbag, sling bag, travel bag, tote, clutch, pouch, coin purse, wallet...

Accessories: pocket mirror (Ocebo'), babywearing mirror (Coucou Hibou), tie...

Textile/clothing: bomber jacket (child or adult), low slippers or ankle booties (sizes EU 25 to 47)...

Textile art: kinusaiga panel — a Japanese craft technique, very graphic, which transforms your fabrics into a framed wall piece.

If you have an idea that's not on this list, bring it up anyway. I haven't yet met a request I couldn't find some way to approach — and if I genuinely can't make it work, I'll tell you honestly from our very first conversation.

Can I combine fabrics from different people in the same piece?

Absolutely — and it can be extraordinarily beautiful.

Blending your grandfather's jacket with your grandmother's scarf in one bag, weaving together fabrics from three generations in a clutch... these assemblages carry something powerfully symbolic, and they often produce visually rich and unexpected results.

The only constraints are technical: the fabrics need to be compatible with each other (durability, thickness, structure), and each piece needs to be large enough for the planned cuts. But by playing with finishes — flat panels, patchwork, geometric or organic shapes — we can often work with small pieces and still create something coherent.

We take stock together during the discovery call, looking at your fabrics and imagining the possibilities. Bring everything you have!
