Meet the Team

Lucy

My name is Lucy and I am the fashion designer and co- founder of Stitchmaiden.

I'm in charge of everything creative surrounding our products! Besides that I will figure out the best way to sew Faye's patterns together and figuring out neat ways of workmanship. Then I get to write and illustrate the sewing instructions, teaching your how to sew our patterns.
I also handle our social media accounts and marketing strategy including content creation such as writing the blog posts and coming up with additional sewing tutorials and tricks. Part of my tasks also include chatting with you in the comment section! I am also responsible for the website and marketplaces.

When I am not sewing (I also love quilting!), you can find me cuddling with my cat or spending time outside in nature. One of my passions includes everything antique and vintage - I have always felt connected to the old things that are handed down through generations.

Faye

I am Faye, the pattern maker and co-founder of Stitchmaiden. I’m responsible for the very core of the products: the patterns! I love turning design sketches into 3D garments and solving problems along the way.

My tasks involve everything related to pattern making: drafting,
grading, figuring out cutting layouts and calculating fabric consumptions and more. After a few rounds of testing my pattern, I turn everything into pdf pattern sheets. I also join Lucy's illustrated sewing instruction and my pages together to create a pretty layout and completed sewing instruction ebook for you to enjoy! I am also happy to handle videoediting and customer service as well as other various tasks related to running a small business. 

When I'm not pattern making, you can find me exploring and teaching myself various crafty skills like paperplotting, making food from felt or making a new cosplay costume of my favorite characters. I also own a big collection of various plants to turn my space into a small jungle!
