About
Keeping vintage and historical clothing in circulation requires repair and conservation. I use traditional sewing techniques that have been practiced for centuries, back when clothing held far more value to the owner. My mission is to save textile waste from landfill both repairing and passing on those methods which have been handed down through time.
As well as more familiar sewing skills like darning and embroidery I incorporate visible mending and Sashiko Stitching as ways to embellish and accentuate the mend. Where garments are beyond repair I ensure that every part is reused in other designs so that no waste is generated.
