Clémence contacted me to repurpose one of her babywearing wrap coupons into a bag model she had seen in my inventory.

The direction was quickly determined, and we combined natural materials: silk from the dormant stocks of a prominent fashion designer and thick 100% organic cotton canvas. We chose the pattern placements together.

A wonderful collaboration resulted in this bag that skillfully blends whimsy and sophistication.

Thank you, Marie, it's splendid, and it will be perfect for this autumn. Thank you very much, and surely until next time.

Common questions

Is there a right time to start, or can I take as long as I need?

There's no good or bad time, only your own.

For a babywearing wrap, it can be transformed as soon as babywearing ends, or much later, once you've missed it enough to want to see it in a new form. For a loved one's clothing, there's no rush either: some people contact me a few weeks after a bereavement, others several years later. Take whatever time you need, I'll be here when you're ready.

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!
