Ojepizi's Profile

Bio

Hello!

My name is Stephie Lapre! I live in Milwaukee, WI and have been sewing since childhood. My grandmother taught me the basics when I was a young kid, and I continued to teach myself on my mom's super old, antique, metal sewing machine. I couldn't even lift that thing.. but it was rad, trust me.

Anyway, it broke. So, for years after that I didn't sew much and found myself interested in other forms of art, especially drawing. And believe me, much of that drawing was all the clothing designs that constantly floated through my mind all day and night!

Finally, I received a new sewing machine for my birthday a few years ago.. and poof! I was back to sewing and have been loving it ever since. I don't think I could live without this craft. (I definitely have a backup machine now.. whew!)

Everything in my shop is unique and original. I do everything from the initial sketch on paper to the finished ready-to-wear pieces you see here!

Everything is machine stitched and serged for professional quality!
