I love all areas of fashion and design. I have had an interest in fabrics, crafts and upcycled since my teens.

I can use a piece of fabric, and design a once off garment in a few hours. Being able to sew by hand and machine is the greatest gift. I was shown as a child to knit and sew. Recently I figured out how to crochet. I have made lots of  fashion and craft products to sell at markets. I have now decided to start selling online.

Running my little business from my home is fantastic. I work around the hours of my family, farm life and friends.

All products on my online store are clearly described as New, Vintage, Preloved, Reworked, Upcycled or made by myself.

It's great to have customers from Cork and local areas but my online shop will get my designs and work to other parts of the world.

I have studied fashion design and I have been working with fabrics, textiles etc for years. I also enjoy passing on my skills by teaching sewing classes.

Sustainable fashion is the best way to dress. Reduce the landfills of clothing by reusing, upcycling and rewearing a garment. Or maybe pass it onto to someone else to wear.

I hope you have time to browse through my products.

Please support my little business.#buyirish#sustainable#fashion.

Thanks
