Gabrièle

The enthusiastic patternmaker and costume designer behind NDLWRKshop. I absolutely love creating something magical from scratch. For me, patternmaking feels like solving an exciting puzzle, carefully fitting each piece together until the final, amazing creation emerges. There's endless joy in transforming simple materials into beautiful, wearable works of art, and I genuinely enjoy exploring new fabrics, textures, and design details. Crafting isn't just my job, it's also how I relax and recharge. When I'm not sewing or sketching, you'll often find me diving into the imaginative worlds of my favourite video games. I adore epic adventures in series like The Legend of Zelda and Dragon Quest or cozy, relaxing moments playing games like Rune Factory and Fantasy Life. Community and customer experience are extremely important to me, and I'm always thrilled to hear from you! Feel free to reach out anytime with questions, feedback, or fresh ideas. My biggest goal is to make NDLWRKshop a welcoming, beginner-friendly space where everyone feels inspired and supported in their creative journey. Don't be shy, your crafting adventure matters deeply to me!

Hi, I’m the creative force behind NDLWRKshop’s tutorials, digital content, and online presence. While Gabrièle brings our patterns to life through her incredible designs, I focus on everything that helps bring those designs to you. I write all of our step-by-step sewing tutorial books, produce and edit our short-form videos, manage our social media, and keep our website running smoothly. I also coordinate product launches, help plan out our releases, and make sure every detail, from your first click to your final stitch, feels thoughtful, helpful, and fun. I’m especially passionate about creating resources that make sewing feel less intimidating and more like an adventure. I love breaking down complex ideas into clear instructions, and seeing our community grow more confident with every project brings me so much joy. Outside of work, I recharge by spending time outdoors with my family or relaxing with some of my favourite games. I’m a big fan of Genshin Impact, RuneScape, Minecraft, and The Legend of Zelda, anything that lets me explore new worlds and spark my imagination. Whether I’m climbing a mountain trail or mining for diamonds in-game, I’m always on the lookout for inspiration to bring back to NDLWRKshop.
