hi, my name is kirstie and I am a seamstress, artist and designer. 

I started making my own clothes as a child and began my sewing career in my 20's, making ball gowns, bridal wear and bespoke garments.


Now I mainly take on alterations and repairs whilst also focusing my time on my art, I am currently preparing for devon open studios 2022.

I am addicted to finding vintage and antique gems in unexpected places such as charity shops, I love to spend my time re-cutting, altering and tailoring them to give these pieces a whole new style and lease of life.

I make bespoke cushions, some with collage designs, using an array of vintage, antique, recycled and designer textiles.

I am open to discussing any ideas with you whether it be alterations, repairs or a a bespoke project, please do get in touch.
