Alison's babywearing wrap N° : SM-015

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!!

Morgane's babywearing wrap

Morgane is a seamstress in her spare time, but she wanted to treat herself by having two custom pieces created from a snood made from a babywearing wrap she owned. A sort of “just sit back and relax while someone else does the sewing“ kind of deal 🙂

Common questions

"I can’t afford it"

Payment in several installments (3 or 4 times) is possible.
For bespoke orders, I can also spread the creation stages over several months.

Can I order a bespoke transformation as a gift for someone?

Yes — and it's one of the most thoughtful gifts I've seen people give.

Offering someone a piece made from a fabric that belongs to them (or that belonged to a loved one) is a rare and deeply considered gesture. It takes a little organisation, but it's entirely doable.

A few practical points:

  • You contact me and manage the whole project — the recipient doesn't need to be involved if you want to keep the surprise;
  • You'll need to get hold of the fabric discreetly;
  • I can help you choose the right model if you're unsure what would suit the person best;
  • A thoughtful gift wrap can be arranged on request.

Tell me about your idea during a discovery call, and together we'll imagine something truly unforgettable.

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.
