Bag Designer and Musician
Currently living in Vernon, CT with my lovely husband and noisy cat. I split my time between two of my passions: sewing and music. Over the past decade I devoted most of my time to being a professional musician, performing around the US and Europe. Deciding I needed a break from playing piano full-time, I now spend more of my time designing and creating bags, wallets and accessories and focusing on the Novaclavi Design business.
Having done a fair bit of sewing/crafting in my youth, I picked up sewing again around 2015. After dabbling in quilting and clothes making (which I still do), I started concentrating on bags and purses. It's such a practical thing to make! Whenever I'd be out trying to find a bag or wallet that suited my needs I would be unsuccessful so I decided to create my own. I'm constantly learning new techniques and evolving my style so I can create a great product for everyone. Currently my favorite tool to design with is my laser cutter/burner. Endless possibilities!
