Popolo Design

Popolo Design Handmade in Canada. I love to create beautiful things that fit real people in the real world. 'Popolo' is the Italian word for people. Popolo Design was born!

I learned the word on a trip to Rome in 2005 where we visited the Piazza del Popolo, The People's Square. As a lover of words and language, the word tickled me. I felt it conveyed the joy that I feel when I am creating. My goal is to bring my clients, the people, joy and confidence. Therefore, the word popolo seemed a natural fit to convey those goals.

Welp, my rage sewing project has been shipped across Canada and travelled the world and, sadly, I'm still feeling ragey.
Totes are still available online. I have a few in stock, but since they're all handmade from the ground up, here in the nation's capital, I will make as many more as everyone wants.

Something you might not know:

Sometimes it isn't just sewing...a lot of times it isn't just sewing. The actual construction is probably about only 20-25% of the process.

There's the idea, then designing and planning, then sourcing fabric, then cutting, until finally it all comes together. Did I mention problem solving? Because there's a tonne of that too!

As a one person shop, it can be challenging to keep up the creativity and a little daunting learning new skills like this embroidery software, but I love it and won't stop!

Thanks to all for your continued support!
It means everything!!!!!! 🧡

Enjoy your weekend everyone!!!
