Hi, I’m Sammy, the person behind Sewn for Keeps. I’ve always loved being creative and making things by hand.

My career has taken me all over the world as a professional singer, but for the past few years I’ve been happily settled back in the UK, where I still sing while developing a new creative passion.

I have a big passion for sewing, knitting and crochet, and I’m proud to have made the majority of my own wardrobe, most of which I share on my Instagram page.

After being asked for many years if I made things to order, I finally decided to put my creativity to good use and turn my passion into Sewn for Keeps.

I’ve made lots of memory bears and keepsakes for friends and family, and I absolutely love seeing each one come to life. I also love hearing the stories behind the precious clothing and memories that go into making them. Every piece has its own meaning, and it’s a privilege to help turn those memories into something that can be treasured for years to come.

All of my bears are lovingly handmade by me in my home, with the occasional assistance (or interference!) from my not-so-helpful Cocker Spaniel, Gibbs.
