Laura had several wraps she was considering using to make herself a bomber jacket.

She entrusted me with two different ones for the exterior and interior, and I sent her some fabric options scraps for the sleeves... Once everything was chosen and armed with her precise measurements, I embarked on making this jacket, which I really enjoyed creating and which I would have liked to keep for myself... ;)

i love it so much! instantly my fav jacket ever đŸ€Ł the fit is wonderful, finally a jacket with long enough arms!
thank you so so so so much again đŸ„°
[...] i‘ve been wearing the bomber jacket whenever the weather permits and i love it sososoSO much!

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.

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.

Are technical fabrics (sport, dance, running) as sturdy as a classic fabric once transformed?

It depends on the fabric, but in most cases, yes. The stretch and fineness of some of these materials (lycra, softshell or technical jersey, for example) are actually an asset for Kinusaiga panels, and conversely, they're compensated for very well in leatherwork with reinforcements (interfacing, lining), just like any other delicate textile. These fabrics also tend to have excellent resistance to abrasion and friction, which is a real plus for bags and wallets.

We talk it through together during the discovery call.
