We design modern, thoughtful everyday garments with a focus on relaxed silhouettes, clean lines, and architectural details. Our patterns are built to become versatile wardrobe staples—timeless pieces designed to be sewn again and again in quality natural fabrics.

We cater to a range of skill levels, from confident beginners to intermediate makers! Every pattern listing clearly displays a skill level rating. Regardless of the complexity, our visual-first instruction booklets break down every step with clear diagrams, pressing cues, and seam finishes so you never feel lost.

Our designs are drafted primarily for woven, natural fibers such as linen, cotton, hemp, ramie, wool, and silk. Each pattern product page and instruction booklet includes a detailed fabric recommendation section, along with suggested fabric weights and drape notes to help you choose the perfect textile.

Yes! Every pattern booklet includes comprehensive fabric yardage requirements and optimized cutting layouts for both standard 115 cm (45 in) and 150 cm (58 in) fabric widths across the full size range.

Not at all! All our patterns can be sewn using a standard domestic sewing machine with a basic straight stitch and zig-zag function. While an overlocker is great for finishing raw edges, our instruction booklets always include alternative seam-finishing techniques (such as French seams, bias binding, or zig-zag finishes) so you can achieve a professional interior on any machine.

Every pattern is hand-drafted, vector-graded, and sample-tested in our sunny studio in Nelson / Tasman, New Zealand. We take pride in independent, slow design taking the time to refine every curve and notch before a pattern ever reaches your screen.
