Made to be lived in
Island-inspired, environmentally conscious clothing made for everyday life.
The Story
Handmade on Vancouver Island
Born and raised in traditional Snuneymuxw territory, Jos now lives and sews in traditional Lekwungen territory. Sewing in the living room of her one bedroom apartment, she makes pieces that are inspired by island life.
Environmentally conscious fabrics
Jos focuses on working with upcycling vintage textiles, like your grandma’s lace tablecloth. When buying new fabric, she look for remnants of natural fibres such as cottons and linens. She uses her scraps for binding edges and stuffing pillows.
One-of-a-kind pieces
Jos doesn’t like to sew the same thing over and over again. That would be boring (thanks, ADHD!) Each piece is slightly different, and she is always learning and improving her skills. She loves to work with clients to make custom fitted garments - please reach out via email <3
Eventually, Jos might have a blog here. For now, it will be photoshoot archives.
