I have been absent, yet again. I've been balancing work with grieving the death of my father; balancing providing strength for others with feeling powerless; balancing communicating with my clients with the occasional incapacity to complete the most menial tasks. This man was my greatest supporter and an even greater influence on my business and creativity. He wore everything I made for him with such pride and honor. He touched the lives of so many through his own work as a teacher; police officer; provider to his community. He was an incredible artist and left behind so many pieces of himself through his creations. Anyone who knew him knew his light that he carried. He was not without his faults, but they were few when stacked up against his loyalty to his family and providing ample love; financial security; morals and values. Although there were many times in my life when I took him for granted, I know that his love never faltered. My business would not be where it is right now without his undying faith in my abilities. Thank you to all of my clients who have been so patient and supportive during this time🌺

I have this stack of ocean blue terry cloth scraps from a project I just finished up. Any of my sustainable followers interested? They'd make great backing for make-up removing pads!

I've been pretty absent lately; enjoying the fruits of my labor. I suppose it's time I checked back in and introduce myself to any new followers and reacquaint myself with all those who continue to support my business. After all, fresh start today, am I right?

°°°

My name is Amanda and I am the sole proprietor of Saved in the Stitch of Time. This is a business that I have put nearly a decade into developing and growing. It all started with a thoughtful gift of a sewing machine and a little inspiration plus a passion for sustainability and individuality.

°°°

I'm a vendor at a local market two times a week where people can come and bring me their clothing to alter and mend. It's a bit of a thrill to see the excitement in people's faces when they see an actual seamstress out working. The curiosity of the children is especially comforting. Thanks to a dear friend and incredible artist, and , I have also recently been setting up in a more bustling town a couple times a month. I offer custom work and over the past couple of years have been really diving into using patterns thanks to a little nudge from . I've even drafted a couple patterns of my own. I've been fortunate to work with certain companies doing piece work so my hand has touched a piece that somebody is loving right now.

°°°

My true passion is sustainability. I love replacing a zipper in jeans even though it's a pain. I love repairing a few small holes or a rip. I especially love extending the life of a valued piece, like a grandmother's apron I just completed for or a baby's blanket. And I 💜💜💜 taking thrift store scores and giving them new life.

°°°

I get to practice patience every day which, for me, is necessary 😂 I have incredible clients who support me and express their gratitude for my gift.

Mahalo nui💗
