Hey, my names Gay…

Over the past 20 years, I’ve built small clothing brands, run a thriving sewing studio, risen as one of Depop’s top vintage sellers, and developed a repair service rooted in care and visible mending—wearing our badges of honour with pride.

In early 2024, I made a bold decision: I closed my studio.

Not because I was done—but because I knew I needed to do things differently. My studio was booked out. My calendar was full. From the outside, it looked like success. But behind the scenes, I was burned out, stretched too thin, and losing touch with why I started.

I wanted slower.
I wanted deeper.
I wanted a business that felt more like me—not just what the industry expects.

So I moved my work back home (yep—back bedroom HQ, Nottingham-based) and began rebuilding services that reflect my values: purpose, guiding, creativity, and care.

That shift opened a new door.

Now, I help other repair artists reclaim their worth, price their work with confidence, and show up online without selling their souls to the algorithm.

Whether you're just starting out or shifting gears, I’m here to help you build a business that reflects you—not just your sewing, but your values, your time, and your energy.
