Rare Bird Sewing Studio

I source environmentally friendly textiles like linen, h**p, tencel with a hope for more. I offer made to measure service to avoid overproduction. I offer alteration service- that’s the best way of reusing already existing items. I develop products that are beautiful and made from leftover fabrics I have in stock. I buy ‘’DEADSTOCK’’ fabrics ( fabric that would otherwise go to waste )- perfect qua

lity, but not profitable for big companies. I make one-off products so they are truly unique. I am a trained Kilt Maker with lots of experience of how to make traditional Scottish Kilt. I’ve transformed this experience to create something even better. I offer Vegan Kilts made from h**p, tencel, recycled denim. Who I am? I’ve lived in Scotland for over 10 years. I work from home when I have a fully equipped sewing studio. I work on industrial sewing machines to achieve the best possible quality. On a daily basis, I cooperate with small Scottish businesses and make Kilts and tartan goods for them. I do sewing. Every day. I learn, develop my technique, google about it, read about it, talk about it. Sewing is my work, my hobby, a big chunk of my life. There are hundreds of more talented people than me, but I’ve decided to follow my passion anyway and be good at it. It takes time, effort, commitment, patience. Not every day is easy. There are days full of frustration and doubt. Also days of joy and trust in myself. When I make something stunning, really creative or simply the way it should be done- that’s enough to keep me going. It’s a journey. How not to give up, how to survive in a world of mass production. It’s important to have principles. Mine are simple: be kind, don’t lie, be helpful, keep the quality first, don’t produce rubbish as our planet is already full of trash. And learn. My name is Agnieszka and I am here to make something that would last. REUSE, REPURPOSE, RECYCLE.
