I absolutely adore fabric!..My love and fascination with textiles happen when I was about 10 when my mother got her 1st box of fabrics sent to her in the mail from her sisters textile Mill in New Jersey..I knew I wanted to create something with all these wonderful and all so different fabric pieces. Each year around the same time I would look forward to what my aunt would send to us. My mother would use most of these wonderful pieces to sew my sister's clothes for her Barbie dolls and to also sew suits for herself and clothing for her two daughters, as well as beautiful sets of curtain drapes for our home..I learned how to sew with her teaching me when I was 15 and I will never forget her giving me that gift.

Is owned and operated by myself only. Each item is designed, hand cut and sewn by myself..I love the freedom I get from doing all the work myself..it's a great satisfaction after I finish each piece.


~About the denim I use in my pouches~


I use any good denim garments from jeans to denim skirts to overalls..as long as it is in good strong condition...I look for how much the denim is distressed, over all fading and the shade of the denim.. I like both dark, medium and light shades...I search far and wide at thrift stores and used clothing shops for the denim I use in my pouches..I feel good I am using these garment and repurposing the fabric from them into something functional and beautiful!...All my denim is 1st inspected, washed and is fresh and clean before I cut into it. All my items are made in a clean smoke free work environment.


I feel fortunate to have learned how to sew from my dear mother..and to be able to create and for others to hopefully enjoy my work!

I thank Etsy for a place artist can show their goods!
