German Craftsmanship for Modern Makers
Welcome to BARBARA et Co., an independent digital sewing pattern studio founded in 2026 by Barbara, a Master Tailor and Pattern Maker based in Germany.
My path began with professional training in bespoke tailoring. In 2009, I earned my qualification as a Master Tailor. This foundation shaped my understanding of fit, construction, feminine silhouettes, and refined details.
From 2012 to 2021, I co-founded and co-led an independent fashion label. That chapter gave me firsthand experience in garment development, collection building, and translating traditional craftsmanship into contemporary design.
Today, I translate that experience into thoughtfully developed digital sewing patterns for makers worldwide. Each design begins with professional patternmaking and is developed with care—from construction and fit to the instructions and final digital files.
BARBARA et Co. is built on craftsmanship, considered design, and mindful sewing. The goal is not simply to make more clothes, but to create garments that feel personal, meaningful, and worth keeping.
German craftsmanship. Timeless elegance. Created for makers worldwide.
