We believe than once you get introduced to sewing, a new world of creative possibilities opens up in front of you. Your clothes are no longer easily disposable objects, but rather a playground for new ideas.

What you no longer like you start to reinvent, what is broken you can repair, with what is unused you can recreate. In this process, your relationship to clothing becomes more intimate – you understand clothes in more detail, you can start telling fabrics and quality when you buy. And to every piece you create, repair or upcycle, you add a little part of yourself.

Creativity can reconnect us with ourselves and our clothing

There are too many one-wear-stands in fashion, that leave one empty, anxious and unsatisfied. We want to contribute to retying the relationship between humans and their clothing. Because clothes are our second skin, our partners in the busy and demanding times we live. And like in any relationship, when love is true, boredom is just a phase. A phase we overcome with a bit of creativity. We want to share with you the tools and knowledge to choose well and make it last. Everyone deserves to find their true love.
