Elsa wanted a round backpack that could be worn in multiple ways and had plenty of storage.
After I presented several pattern options, her choice settled on this flap model, which is convertible and features a zippered compartment at the bottom.

The initially chosen babywearing wrap scrap didn't arrive on time (due to the Ukrainian conflict), so we selected another one that she liked just as much. It complements the 100% organic cotton canvas and the originally chosen gold hardware beautifully.

This highly technical backpack now accompanies her on most of her outings.

Common questions

Do you offer support for a wedding, before, during or after the ceremony?

Yes, a wedding is a moment I can support at several stages.

Before or during the ceremony, we can create a fashion or décor piece carrying the presence of an absent or deceased parent, or matching pieces where each partner wears a little of the other's fabric. Afterwards, the dress or suit can become a bag, a wallet or, if you'd rather have something to display than to wear, a kinusaiga panel: the wedding fabrics take the shape of a wall piece, to keep on display in your home rather than folded away in a garment bag.

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 I have no idea what model I want?

No worries! I don’t lack imagination—or experience...
I guide you with questions and will suggest several visual directions (photos, videos, mockups).
