About Magdalena
Born into a creative family, I acquired handy skills from an early age. With a background in fashion design, art history, and business, I turned my passion into a career. Since relocating SEWANSOME from Cornwall to Plymouth in 2012, I’ve earned qualifications in Teaching Adults, Soft Furnishings, and a BA (Hons.) in Interior Design. I now pass on my knowledge through my sewing workshops and one-to-one lessons.

Her dedication ensures timely turnaround without ever compromising quality.
In short, if you're looking for someone who can craft a unique piece, tailor your wardrobe perfectly, innovate through upcycling, or handle tricky pattern adjustments, Magda is the person.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking excellence in sewing, custom design, and alterations.
