Michèle A.'s wish N° : SM-011

Michèle is my mother and one of my earliest supporters. Not only did she occasionally indulge in creations born from my inspiration, but as a lifelong bag enthusiast, she also placed two custom orders, including this exquisite bomber jacket.

Michèle is my mother and one of my earliest supporters. Not only did she occasionally indulge in creations born from my inspiration, but as a lifelong bag enthusiast, she also placed two custom orders, including this exquisite bomber jacket. She had fallen head over heels for the fabric when she saw it used for a wallet in my inventory.

Taking measurements, discussing the lining, and there you have a delighted mother who seizes every opportunity to wear her jacket!

Élodie's babywearing wrap scrap

One year after ordering a custom-made Bowler-style bag from me, inspired by the version that came out of my creative workshop, Élodie wanted another one in different materials. It is after all a bag that is both chic and highly functional.

Common questions

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.

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.

What if my fabric is damaged?

That’s common, and most of the time it’s not a problem.
We select the usable areas and I complete with premium materials to ensure strength and durability.
