Katherine Waters says, “I find hand sewing incredibly rewarding. The process is relaxing, deliberate, and I find great joy in the way simple stitches come together to create something much more complex. Hand sewing allows me to connect with my creativity at a sort of ground zero. There’s nothing that brings me closer to a project than a simple needle and thread.”

Kat has been sewing since her foot could reach the sewing machine’s foot pedal. She’s made everything she wears since 2016. Keep up with her projects on Instagram @kat.makes or on her website, KatMakes.com.
