Specializing in Refurbishing and Reimagining Leftovers into Modern Statement Pieces

Beauty is often found in unlikely places. I find it by reinventing tired, ordinary, or discarded materials into something functional and beautiful.

Sewing has become a new favorite creative outlet i

Sewing has become a new favorite creative outlet in 2020. It’s therapeutic and calming to sew while listening to audiobooks, podcasts and my favorite music.

I’ve spent the last few months working on a new collection - a line of bags I’m calling Sewing Change. The exterior of each is made from waxed canvas, a water-resistant fabric that is durable and wears beautifully with a leather-like appearance. Each has a beautiful coordinating fabric interior, zipper and leather wristlet. Each clutch is lovingly made by hand and one-of-a-kind. They're a perfect size to carry while running errands, for travel or for keeping office or school essentials organized.

For each bag purchased, we’ll make a donation to The Starting Place, a maternal education and midwife team in Temple, Texas. @midwivesatthestartingplace are working to address the inequity of maternal healthcare for women of color while offering support and empowerment before, during, and after pregnancy. (Check out thestartingplace.com for more info.)

SO, if you see one you want, be the first to comment on this post (include the bag number). I'll DM you to confirm and provide payment info. I hope y’all love these as much as I’ve loved making them!
