About

My mother taught me to sew and knit when I was six years old (and more recently  crochet). I had a red toy sewing machine that really worked and I made clothes for my dolls. Later, I made clothes for myself and my family. I love discovering vintage and recycled fabric and transforming them in to bags, purses and soft toys.

Thank you to my son, Julien, for his generous assistance with this website.

About Theresa

My mother taught me to sew and knit when I was six years old. I had a toy sewing machine that really worked and I made clothes for my dolls. Later, I made clothes for myself as a teenager, then for my children when they were young. Now I love to discover vintage and recycled fabric, rescue them from the bottom shelves of opportunity shops and transform them in to bags and soft toys. As Seams Different, I love to see old fabric given new life, bringing colour and floral patterns out of the dark and in to the world where they belong.
