Re-create
Have you ever wished you could have ‘another’ of a favourite item? Let me recreate this item for you.
Maybe it’s a dress you love but you’ve worn it to death or it doesn’t quite fit right. I will create a pattern from your existing item, updating it if needed.
Then the fun starts, you get to choose the fabric. Can you imagine actually getting to choose the colour, print, feel of the fabric for an item just for you?? Being able to add a great big dollop of YOUR style to what you dress yourself in. I’ll provide you with a list of fabric shops, what to look for and how much is required, and you get to go shopping.
I then construct and finish your garment. You now have a garment you love that fits you and helps you step into your energy.

Repair
Where you are now and what you have is always the best place to start. Start with the items already in your wardrobe.
Lets extend the life of your clothes, lets add to their story.
There is probably something in your wardrobe that you like but don’t love or you don’t wear anymore.
It could be that it needs mending, altering, refashioning so you can wear it and love it.
Or maybe it has ended it’s life as a garment but could be made into something else.
Repairing/mending: holes in jeans, sweaters, pockets, dropped hem, broken zippers… these can and should be fixed. They can be done either invisibly or in a way to highlight the repair and the story of you and your clothes.
Altering: too small, too big, wrong length, wrong neckline, wrong buttons. All of these can be easily solved.
Refashioning: oh the fun we can have here!!!!
