About Evelyn
Hello. I'm Eve.
Born in beautiful Erfurt, my path led me further to Dresden, Darmstadt, Lübeck, and Leoben in Austria. This is where I call home at the moment. Since my childhood, there hasn't been a household without a sewing machine for me. I learned to sew from my mother. It wasn't so important at first, but became more significant again from 2016 with the birth of my first daughter. Since then, I have equipped family and friends with everything they need in terms of sewing.
My calling lies in design. As a former Senior Art Director and currently an independent designer, I am familiar with the graphic creation of sewing patterns, instructions, and photo and video productions. Through supervising working students and new employees in the agency, I have learned to convey processes clearly and simply. I bring this skill to SewSimple with great joy.
What drives me?
Honestly, I have to say that my everyday life is primarily what drives me. Many of my ideas arise from the practical needs of my daily life with three small children and a husband. Something is always needed here. Whether it be bags, clothing in all its facets, or decorations.
By now, my girls are creative themselves and draw their own clothing designs. This is not always easy, because the first step to fulfilling their wishes is the fabric design itself. But wishes and needs can also be fulfilled from the existing fabric collection.
Furthermore, it is my desire to show others how easy it is to sew your own clothes and bags. To design your own wardrobe individually. Simply to provide a counterpoint to fast fashion and quantity.
