Émilie had a magnificent babywearing wrap scrap that had caught her eye (and mine too), and a very specific need: a vintage-looking bag that could be worn with a wrap strap instead of a traditional one.
The Ring Sling bag didn't tick all the boxes, and I scoured dozens of patterns until I found the one that would work.

In the end, she chose a shoulder bag that I modified to be worn at the hip, with a wrap strap and rings reminiscent of the Ring Sling bag.

Although larger than she had imagined, the bag was a delightful discovery under the Christmas tree:

[...] I want to thank you for your fantastic work and for your little gifts. I was very moved; thank you very much, it's truly lovely.

Common questions

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.

"I’m afraid to cut into a sentimental fabric. What if I regret it?"

It’s natural to feel that hesitation. We work together to honor your story.
Each step is validated (photos, video call), and nothing is irreversible until you give the green light.

"Your style is very distinctive. Will it really feel like mine?"

My creative world guides my eye, but your aesthetic takes priority.
I put my know-how at the service of your story, not the other way around.
