Midi dress made with natural textiles (cotton and linen) and vintage textiles (denim! Italina linen!), pieced together with my trusty ol' sewing machine. I then added lots & lots & lots of hand stitching to emphasize that it's really hand-made and one-of-a-kind.
I make colorful clothes for creative souls. My motto is "Wear happy!". I make patterns, I cut, and sew everything myself, using an eclectic mix of quality vintage textiles, European linen, and organic cotton. Occasionally I hand dye some of the textiles, even using natural dyestuffs that I forage myself. Each garment starts with pieces that I sew together using my old sewing machine. To give the garment more character, I add some visible hand stitching: Sometimes very neatly, other times intentionally crooked, even leaving a few loose threads here and there. I may hand knit or crochet a few edges. While this may sound very chaotic, I strive to achieve a harmonious balance until the final piece looks "just right".
