Teacher, makerspace facilitator and a DIY woman. I am a «sandwich» between two generations of professional tailors.
I love to make experimental sewing with both vintage and modern sewingmachines - and in hand.
Recycling and sustainable life is one of my goals.
I love making bags and I love using modern tools as lasercutter, 3D printer, sublimation. But I am also using old analog techniques as prints, monoprinting.
One of my goal is to make e-textile projects.
This blog is about what I am making just now - more the way of making than the product.
