Alison is my first international customer, as she is American. She contacted me as soon as she saw that I had a scrap of a babywearing wrap that she had fallen in love with. She asked for a convertible backpack that can be worn as a shoulder bag or crossbody, and I suggested the “Oh Seau Chic,” which is simpler than the model she initially saw among my spontaneous creations.

We had a lengthy discussion about the complementary materials, and she ultimately chose cork on 100% cotton denim for its durability (her initial choice was 100% organic cotton canvas). We also added an additional external zip pocket in addition to the one inside.

Here's her reaction upon receiving it:

Ooommmggg the pictures do not do this justice. It's amazing!! [...] I have admired your creations for a while. When I saw you had this scrap I had to reach out!!

Common questions

What happens to my fabric during and after the transformation?

Your fabric is precious — I know that, and I treat it accordingly.

During the transformation, I only use what's needed for the piece we agreed on. Offcuts come back to you. I always tuck them into your return parcel, unless you tell me to keep or dispose of them.

In practice:

  • You send me your fabric (the whole garment, or the section you want transformed);
  • I work from your piece, making the most of every centimetre in a thoughtful way;
  • Any remaining offcuts travel back home with your finished creation.

If your fabric is very small or choices need to be made (where to position a motif, which section to prioritise), we talk it through before any cutting happens. Nothing is cut without prior agreement.

What if my fabric is damaged?

That’s common, and most of the time it’s not a problem.
We select the usable areas and I complete with premium materials to ensure strength and durability.

"I’m afraid it won’t be ready in time for an event"

Artisanal creation takes time, but I can adjust the schedule, advise a design compatible with your deadline, and keep you informed at every step.
For ready-to-ship pieces, I ship within 12 hours and can arrange express delivery (Colissimo free of charge, Chronopost 10 a.m. option).
