About Me

Greetings from Downeast Maine. My name is Sveta, and I live, work, and create my wool designs from my shop near Mount Desert Island. Ever since I was a young girl in the 60's, I watched my grandma work with fabric and spin wool to make nice things for me & our home in Ukraine. I would then find myself always having needles and thread wherever I went, and was always creating different clothes for my dolls. As I grew older, my love for sewing and fabric took me toward creating custom clothes for myself, friends and customers. Since I moved to USA in 2008, I still do sewing as a business, and I create my wool bags and accessories using the wet felt method.This is my story . I hope you enjoy my wool felt bags and other ideas that come to my mind
