Hi, my name is Anaïs (ah-nah-EES)!

I am a French citizen now living in Berlin, Germany, after having had a few other expat adventures in Europe and in the Middle East.

Up until my thirties, my corporate job and climbing the corporate ladder was my entire life. However, I found the peace and distraction I didn’t know I needed when I finally picked up a sewing machine and made sewing and designing my own wardrobe my hobby.

With a background in Illustrator, coding, and web design, creating and publishing my own sewing patterns felt like a natural evolution.

I am a one-man show: I design, toile, sew, grade, photograph, and market all my patterns myself — while maintaining an Instagram community of over +180k followers who come to me for sewing tips and inspiration.

I love clothing that feels unique and sophisticated, yet comfortable and wearable — wardrobe staples you’ll reach for again and again.

I’m not here to sell you another simple circle skirt pattern; I want to invite you to sew something more refined, more challenging, and more rewarding.

My goal is to make every pattern an opportunity to learn: to teach you new techniques and methods without the frustration — just the joy of creating something beautiful that fits your body and your style!

Happy Sewing,

Anaïs
