Hi Everyone, so excited to be here! @Claire Amelia asked me to share my youtube link https://www.youtube.com/@reimaginedwhimsy to my channel where I plan on doing tutorial and other fun stuff, but my focus right now is on featuring makers that use reclaimed or upcycled materials in their creations (I will probably branch out into others later on) It's a new channel so all the support of subscribing and watching Meet the Maker series. I am also looking for those that would be interested in chatting with me and sharing their story 🩷

Hello & welcome in. 🧵 I am so grateful you are here. This is a space I have wanted to create for a long time, somewhere that finally feels right for makers like us. A place that doesn't start at the beginning. A place that meets you in the beautiful, complicated middle of this craft we call sewing. Whether you are a dressmaker, a bridal maker, seamstress, a tailor, a corsetiere, an upcycle maker, a costumier, furnishings.. or someone who crosses every single sewing discipline day, this studio is yours. The Atelier Hub was built on one simple belief; that sewers grow best when they grow together. That when we share our knowledge, our discoveries, our creative crises & our wins across every discipline, the whole community becomes richer for it. This is not a teaching space. There are no tutorials here, no step by step guides, no back to basics but we can share our sewing techniques to support growth across our disciplines.. What there is, is a room full of serious, passionate, experienced makers from all over the world, & me standing alongside you as your sewing ally whenever the project gets hard, the client gets difficult or the creative well runs dry. I have been sewing for over 20 years. I am still learning. I suspect you are too. That is exactly why we are all here. Now it's your turn; come & introduce yourself 👇 I'd love to know: 🧵 Your name & where you are in the world ✂️ How long you have been sewing 📌 Your main discipline or the one you are most curious about right now 🌟 One thing you are currently making or dreaming of making There are no wrong answers. There is no judgement in this studio. The studio is open. Welcome to your sewing crew. 🧵 Claire Amelia Founder, The Atelier Hub
