A little colour. A lot of history. And a whole lot of heart. 🧵💛

Born Yesterday is popping up at the Ontario Artisan Market at Evergreen Brick Works This Sunday !

Come explore our collection of one-of-a-kind quilted coats, reimagined vintage textiles, and thoughtfully upcycled pieces. Every garment has a past, a personality, and a new story waiting to be told.

Come say hello, browse, try something on, and discover what happens when old textiles are given new life.

A little magic. A lot of history. ✨

Every piece has a past. We just give it a new story.

Had a really fun time creating this kimono this weekend. Once forgotten linens, delicate lace, vintage embroidery and textiles from another time — now reimagined into something entirely their own.

At Born Yesterday, we believe beautiful things deserve more than one lifetime.

We don’t erase their history. We give it somewhere new to go.

Old soul. New story.

Quilted coat weather has officially arrived. 🍂☕️

One-of-one layers, vintage textiles, and the kind of pieces that make getting dressed feel a little more special. Made slowly, thoughtfully, and meant to be worn on repeat.

Born Yesterday Energy ✨
A little bubblegum, a lot of colour, and one-of-one pieces made to stand out. We’ve been busy in the studio creating, cutting, stitching and giving old textiles a brand-new life. More new garments are coming soon. 💗

Beige called. We didn’t pick up. 🌈

Born Yesterday has never been afraid of colour. Bold prints, unexpected combinations, vintage textiles, texture, pattern and pieces that refuse to blend in.

At the heart of it all is circular fashion — giving existing materials a new life, keeping beautiful textiles in use for longer, and creating one-of-one pieces with less waste and more imagination.

Because getting dressed should feel joyful.

This custom piece is almost finished — made from two very large Canadian Army duffle bags and a pair of Realtree overalls, completely reimagined into something one-of-one.

I love seeing materials with a past come together in a completely new way. A few final details to go, and this one will be ready for its next chapter. ♻️

Born Yesterday is about giving beautiful textiles another life.

One-of-one pieces, thoughtfully reworked from vintage quilts, reclaimed fabrics and forgotten materials — made slowly, locally, and with intention.

No two pieces are ever quite the same. That’s the beauty of it.

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.
