I’m Maymunah, 


I have over 10 years experience in sewing and being able to sew my own garments has given me the  freedom and confidence to express myself.  I am able to dress and show up to the world on my own terms. I too loved shopping in major department stores but was always disappointed with what was on offer. I wanted trendy and fashionable clothing that aligned with my beliefs and that just wasn't available.  This is why being able to sew my own clothes is so important to me. Don’t be limited by what the fashion industry has to offer, be bold and express yourself the way you want through sewing.  

Along the way I have become obsessed with making my clothing look so professional that it looks like I bought it from a major department store.  So let me teach you to do the same.
