Our are minimal and simply functional. We’ve almost got all the kinks figured out when it comes to our design and assembly line. We’ve learned after producing over 4,000 masks how easy it is to make mistakes in assembly line production.

This next round of F***y clutch prototypes we realized it could be a tad bigger depending on the size of your phone, our belt tan sizing needed to be revisited and we decided to line them. (they currently have snap closures)

We’re so excited to these F***y clutches through each season using second hand resourced fabrications from .

While we love those one of kind fabrics we are also in the midst of prototyping this style in second hand leather and performance Cordura with reflective webbing….

We have so many one of a kind options available, it’ll take a moment to drop online. We’re hopeful our locals will Stop in and try one on for feedback and encourage and I to keep sewing!

We designed our place to be versatile. It’s been quite the endeavor to get where we are but we are finally starting to reap the benefits with a sense of ease being integrated in how we go about things.

We welcome the process of Thinking outside the box, being different…here we welcome going against the grain of what’s expected.

Our manufacturing space, mindful boutique, event space, cocktail bar, and classroom are working together as they should…covered with plants and continual aromatherapy filled vibrations.

Our first ever youth sewing camp is underway and our first acoustic event on the horizon.

We are feeling thankful for the hardship as it makes all the more sweetness of the victories and success.

Cheers to you and your journey where ever you are with it.

Love you,
Abbey
