A random $5 sewing machine from an Oregon Goodwill, while on vacation, and a hyper fixation was born.

​

Long before I knew I had ADHD, and a slight touch of autism, I thought I was just a crazy girl with a whole lotta hobbies. I never thought picking up that random thrift store machine would have led to this. 

​

The first thing I had ever sewn was a square pocket out of a worn out dishtowel that was in our scrap bin, because I didn't own any fabric. That was the moment sewing grasped my soul and has never let go. I was meant for this. 

​

Almost 5 years have passed since I decided to open up shop.. Countless sewing machines, thousands of fabrics,, an infinite amount of cuss words and one supportive husband, I am still going strong. Its hard to give up something you love, even through the tough times. 

​

When I started, I had no idea how to thread a machine, sew a straight line, or barely turn on a computer. A lot has changed, including being able to read a pattern, run a website, use multiple machines from embroidery, to sergers, as well as my semi industrial Juki. I am also the designer of many of my one of a kind creations. I curate all of my fabrics, most from small businesses like myself, as well as exploring the higher end shops in the major cities we visit. Fabric is life, even on vacations.

​

My ADHD Bain does well on its own for the most part, but does not take kindly to special orders, therefore, I do not do them. It's very hard for my neurodivergent brain to work under the pressures of creating the perfect bag for one individual.

​

Another perk of my brain is the ability to create one of a kind creations. It gets bored with repetition, so all of my bags are handmade and original.
