My journey as a maker began at a very young age. I grew up with my Mum sewing, cross stitching, knitting, and developed an interest myself. Later in life I would personalise my school uniform and made my own school bag from faux fur.

Fast forward a few years to 2009, my final year studying graphic design. Over the duration of our end of year exhibition a few people asked if I would sell prints of my displayed work, which I did happily! This inspired me to later open an etsy store in October 2010 and these prints were the first items I listed.

Since then those illustrations have been adapted to also become some of the cover designs for my most popular item, my weekly planners. By this time I was working at a print shop, which I still do to this day, where I print/bind all my printed items including my weekly planners. I choose to print all my pieces on recycled stocks and reuse materials where I can, including for packaging.

I also create fabric button pieces to satisfy my obsession with fabric and to make use of my ever growing collection. I even use pieces from my Mum's stash of scraps. Fabric is a great source of inspiration, as are my customers! If you have an idea for a custom piece or new product please let me know, I'd love to hear your ideas.

I look forward to continuing to grow Made by Miss Meg and am interested in collaborating with stores to sell my pieces. If you're interested I would love to hear from you! Similarly if you have any requests, suggestions, comments, or love to share please feel free to contact me.

Have a wonderful day,
Miss Meg
