About Us

We are two enthusiasts that share a passion for sewing. Although we were born at different times and have different education, we equally feel the desire to share knowledge and for further personal growth.

Gosia - Sewing has been her hobby for over 10 years now. She constantly expands her knowledge in sewing clothes, handbags, as well as pattern making. As an IT specialist by education Gosia is not afraid of modern technologies, and therefore will be dealing with the technical side of this blog..

Ania - For over 25 years now she fiercely analyzes different body shapes, making a living by sewing made to measure clothes. She gladly helps designers and fashion companies prepare custom sewing patterns. Ania is, however, most passionate about a production preparation process – the adaptation of technology to the best possible completion of a project.
