I am the founder of Blue Sewing Club. All my life I have enjoyed knitting and sewing. I believe working in creative activities is a fulfilling and joyful way to express oneself and wanted to share these feelings with other creative handworkers who were passionate and who lacked the platform to share, apply and refine their
skills.
Back in 2018 as a former bus driver, I knew that there is always another route that can lead you to final destination so in 2018, I decided to take that alternative route and joined Big Local Works, (and enterprise hub that supports social entrepreneurs) and in 2019 with the support of UnLtd I left behind my past career to begin this exciting new journey.
Sewing and upcycling have also enabled me to become more conscious about the environmental
impact of my consumption habits. Mending can provide exciting opportunities to deliver
maximum outputs within minimal resources and to prolong the life of what I already own and
love.
