Hi, I’m Sharn. I am the hands behind Make + Mend.
I have been working in the field of sustainable fashion for many years, as a designer, business owner, pattern maker and seamstress. In 2021, my family and I made the move from Auckland to the sleepy Bay of Plenty village of Athenree. From here in my home studio I am now sharing my knowledge of sustainable fashion through the art of repair and teaching those who want to learn the craft of sewing.
