Born Yesterday
Hi friends, thank you for being here 🌸🩷
One of my favourite parts of making a quilted jacket — sewing on the bias binding. 🧵
There’s something so satisfying about this step. After all the cutting, piecing, stitching and shaping, the binding is where everything finally comes together and the jacket starts to feel finished.
Slowly made. One stitch at a time.

A custom order with a story already stitched into it. 🪡
These original Canadian issue army bags and camo pants are about to be taken apart, reimagined and transformed into a one-of-one custom chore coat.
I’ll be keeping as much of the original character as possible — the markings, hardware, wear, fading and imperfections that tell you these textiles have already lived a life.
This is exactly what I love about upcycling: not making the old look new, but making the old become something new.
Can’t wait to show you the finished piece.

A little reset before a busy weekend. 🌊
Early morning yoga on the beach, bare feet in the sand, Lake Ontario in front of me and the beautiful R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant behind me. There are definitely worse ways to start the day.
Taking a moment to recharge, clear my head and soak up a little calm before getting back to creating — and getting ready for Sunday’s market. 💙
Sometimes inspiration comes from fabric. Sometimes it comes from slowing down long enough to notice what’s around you.

Slow fashion is coming to The Ontario Artisan Market at Evergreen Brickworks this Sunday!✌️🌼
Come get hip to the trip with Born Yesterday this Sunday! I’ll be bringing a fresh mix of one-of-a-kind pieces made from rescued quilts, vintage textiles and forgotten fabrics — all reimagined into something worth wearing again.
Because good clothes don’t need to start with new fabric. ♻️
And yes… the weather isn’t looking so great 🌧️ — but I’ll be there rain or shine! We’re undercover, so don’t let a little rain stop you from coming by.
📍 Evergreen Brickworks
🗓 Sunday, August 23
⏰ 10–3 PM
Come say hi, try something on and see what’s new.
Wear the past. Shape the future.
