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.

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

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.

"I can’t afford it"

Payment in 4 installments is possible.
For bespoke orders, I can also spread the creation stages over several months.

"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.
