Hi!
I'm Mia and I'm taking the plunge and starting my WAHM venture: One For You, One For Me, handmade clothes and accessories made by me.
I love to create, I love that magic moment when fabric stops being fabric and turns into something that will adorn, warm, protect. I genuinely feel a sense of grieving if a day goes by without me having spent time making something beautiful.
The items I sell all have had previous versions made for my own family - every pattern is therefore pre-tested! Hence one for you, and one for me!
As a child I watched my grandmother knit ferociously, my mother sew and knit obsessively and my sister create relentlessly. I can remember being mesmerised by grandma's needles dancing with the yarn!
I choose to work with natural fibres whenever possible as I simply don't enjoy the feel of man made materials very much. Trims such as ribbons, buttons etc are very scarce over here so for those I have to grit my teeth and take what comes!
I'd also be delighted to take custom orders - the ethos of One For You, One For Me is all about community and relationships.
Here are some examples of my creations:
Special occasion dress (Farbenmix Feliz pattern - permitted to be sold in small numbers):
Embellished interlock longies (Farbenmix Dortje pattern - permitted to be sold in small numbers):
Pillowcase dress:
TDK Undies, I love these!! So comfy for the kids and provide full coverage where it matters
Some dolls and dolls' clothes, (please note these are not toys, only ornaments):
Thank you for looking!
Mia
