Déborah's babywearing wrap scrap N° : SM-026

Déborah contacted me to discuss her project, and over the months, we managed to refine it: a large messenger bag that can be worn in several different ways, with plenty of storage and a central space divided in two.

Déborah contacted me to discuss her project, and over the months, we managed to refine it: a large messenger bag that can be worn in several different ways, with plenty of storage and a central space divided in two.
So, I modified a pattern that already came as close as possible to this very specific request.

She entrusted me with her coupon as well as fabrics filled with memories of her vacation in Tahiti, from where she had brought them back. I took great pleasure in this rather technical creation and the combination of colors far from my own universe.

Déborah, in turn, enjoyed receiving it:

It's superb, thank you very much <3 I'll show it off at work next week, hahaha! I love the result with the Tahitian fabric lining; it's really great.

Amanda's babywearing wrap

Amanda was a babywearing friend before becoming a customer. She entrusted me with a large number of her scarves for various conversions: many shawls (single or lined) and snoods, as well as a few bags and wallets.

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

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.

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.

Can my fabric really be transformed?

Most materials (leather, wool, babywearing wraps, a loved one's clothing, sports jerseys or activewear, baby clothes and comfort toys, a wedding dress or suit…) can be reused.
During the call, I'll clearly tell you what's feasible, or not.
