​

​It all started with a little girl named Olivia...

I was lucky enough to become a mama to my daughter Olivia in 2016 after a long struggle with infertility. I had spent years imagining the adorable outfits my kid would wear when I had one of my own! In reality though, I found that most retail clothes were too big or too short for my tall & skinny little girl.
​
So - off to Youtube and Pinterest I went, to learn to use the sewing machine my mom had given me as a baby shower gift. And the rest, as they say, is history! A few pieces for Olivia turned in to a few gifts for friends, which turned in to a few custom orders and the next thing I knew, I was prepping for my first market (3 days at the Canmore Folk Festival!).

​I hope you love the clothes as much as I love making them. It brings me so much joy to see kids wearing Mountain Handmade creations!
