Hélène's babywearing wrap N° : SM-014

Hélène, a very loyal customer, contacted me to sew her a second hooded bomber, this time without a lining. In the end, a jacket with a fantastic look and a perfect fit.

Hélène, a very loyal customer, contacted me to sew her a second hooded bomber, this time without a lining.
She was undecided between several babywearing wrap scraps, so we discussed what would be most appropriate in terms of blends, patterns, colors, and agreed on this stunning wrap from Oscha, whose design was perfectly suited for a beautiful back panel.

Since her measurements hadn't changed, I immediately started cutting while searching high and low for the perfect shade of purple for the facings and pockets.
I also decided to add a “clean finish” strip at the collar to make the connection with the hood more comfortable in the absence of the usual collar.

In the end, a jacket with a fantastic look and a perfect fit.

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

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.

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.

"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.
