Élodie's babywearing wrap scrap N° : SM-075

After several custom orders, Élodie needed a large tote bag.

After several custom orders, Élodie needed a large tote bag.

She fell in love with a Sling Studio wrap fabric from my workshop that was just the right size, and this time (cf. her Bowler bag), I had a leather jacket in the perfect matching color...
For the lining, I suggested using a satin fabric from Haute Couture, which I had bought from a fashion couturier in my city, for an added touch of sophistication.

This grand vessel has apparently reached its destination:

It’s just wowwww, absolutely gorgeous! I love it, and it’s so practical—I can fit all my stuff for work, it’s perfect 🤩🤩
A huge thank you again 🥰🥰

Florence's wishes

I met Florence during the Crafts and Creation Market in Annonay, in the middle of August. She had a very specific request. We brainstormed the best pattern and optimal materials, and by Christmas, she had her ideal passport holder and another pouch for her daughter.

Common questions

Can I follow the making of my piece as it happens?

You get to choose — and it's a genuine decision to make at the start of the project.

Full updates with photos: I send you photos and sometimes videos at each key stage — cutting, assembly, finishing. You see your fabric come to life step by step. Some people love this. Others find it only makes the waiting harder!

Total surprise: I work away quietly, you see nothing until you open the parcel. For those who want the sense of wonder to be fully intact, right through to the last moment.

Something in between works too: a message after the cutting stage, a photo mid-way, then the surprise finale.

Whatever you choose, one thing I promise: if something along the way needs your input (a motif placement decision, an unexpected colour choice), I'll reach out. You will never be faced with a fait accompli on anything that matters.

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.

"What if I’m disappointed? / I’ve had a bad experience before"

Every project is approved step by step with a detailed quote, photos, and regular updates.
Nothing is started without your agreement, ensuring a result that meets your expectations.
