There’s something truly magical about sewing and designing - the way a simple piece of fabric can be transformed into something unique and full of character. From sketching designs to selecting the perfect materials to carefully stitching each seam, it’s an art form that combines precision, patience, and skill. Sewing is not just what we do. It’s a part of who we are. It allows us to express ourselves and share our love for handmade work.
Wanting to refine my skills and deepen my understanding of the craft, I decided to return to school and study fashion design in 2016. Learning new techniques, working with different fabrics, and mastering patternmaking were both challenging and exciting. Since then, I have built a diverse career working as a patternmaker, cutter/draper, and costume designer .
Sewing has taken me on many adventures - some filled with challenges, others with triumphs - but above all, following my passion has been an incredibly fulfilling experience. Every stitch, every adjustment, and every finished piece is a reminder of why I started this journey in the first place.
This space is where I will share my creative process into the world of theatre costuming, fashion design, and making my wardrobe pieces from design to construction, to the reflections and knowledge I gain as I undertake each new project. Along the way, I’ll also share my inspirations from fabrics and patterns to creative ideas that spark my passion. In sewing, I’m always learning new techniques, overcoming challenges, and constantly improving my skills. From simple patterns to intricate stitching, this blog will be my creative journal and hopefully inspire fellow sewist enthusiasts to connect.
