About Stiches in our genes

Stiches in our genes

Bespoke recycled jeans craft

My mum was a seamstress had her own business called stiches sadly she died in 1999 at only 51 go on nearly 15 years and my 8 year old daughter asked for a sewing machine and since then I’ve been teaching her and making various things . On holiday in Spain I bought a recycled jean bag and I thought I could of made that so since then I’ve made some for friends and family and have gone on to make cushions Christmas bits . All my items are from recycled jeans and some materials are recycled too
Hopefully my mum is proud and she sees that stiches really do run in our genes x
