Sewing Patterns and Handcrafted Cork Accessories for the Eco-Conscious Consumer
{ Peta Approved Vegan }
I strive to bring fresh designs while keeping my foot print minimal by utilizing sustainable materials.
That includes the textiles I create with as well as the way I package and ship my creations. The cork I create with is harvested in Portugal. It is the bark of the Quercus Suber tree and is shaved every 9 -12 years. The tree remains unharmed during harvesting, and continues to produce cork for its lifetime, which can be up to 200 years. This vegan alternative to leather is water & stain resistant, anti-microbial, and a renewable/sustainable resource!
A main goal of mine is to patronize other small businesses in the US that practice fair trade guidelines and pay livable wages. Super plus if they are run by women, and/or employ those of us who are less fortunate and need a leg up.
Every single piece is cut, sewn, photographed, packaged, and shipped by me. I ensure top quality of all of my pieces and have a high standard to ensure your happiness with your purchase.

5 out of 5 starsThe wallet looks just as adversitied and works really well. It’s more durable than I anticipated and is really unique. I would purchase from the seller again and look forward to putting some wear into the wallet.

5 out of 5 starsVery Classy design. Well written pattern. SewGnar is more then a pattern or design, Nicole, the owner, takes the time to educate you and teach you. Many great videos on how to make the pattern and care for the cork. She is a great educator and awesome pattern designer.

My passion is creating sustainable pieces of art that are used in everyday life. I am drawn to clean lines and unique textiles which I why I use cork in my creations. I am currently obsessed with kitty cats, unicorns, and slightly off-kilter humor.
