Ep. 10: Interview with Elisalex de Castro Peake, co-founder of By Hand London

Elisalex started her career as a shoe designer and ran her own very successful brand for 4 years before moving into pattern designing and the sewing world. We love the idea of moving between the fashion and the home sewing industries and seeing the two worlds come together. We chat about everything from starting your own brand, to lessons learnt, working with fashion revolution, sustainable fashion, indie patterns and being a working mum. Our favourite message from this interview? Be kind to yourself.
