Handmade in Limerick, Ireland

Stitching My Story
in Fabric.

A little space to create. A little courage to begin.

For me, fashion is therapy. From my sewing table in Limerick, Ireland, I’m learning, creating and finding my voice—one stitch at a time. Pre-loved fabric, a love of Ankara print, and a fresh beginning in every piece.

The 3Fluxe feeling

A little colour.
A little courage.
A little more you.

Made with heart, in Limerick
PRE-LOVED. REIMAGINED.

More than what we wear

“For me, fashion is therapy.”

Sewing gives me space to slow down, heal and express myself. There is joy in making something with your hands, learning as you go, and discovering what old fabric can become. That feeling is the heart of 3Fluxe.

Our story

A second life for fabric.
A little space for me.

I started 3Fluxe as therapy for myself: a creative space to heal, grow and tell my story. I’m a self-taught beginner in Limerick, Ireland, discovering what I can make—and learning a little more about myself along the way.

Old jeans, pre-loved clothes and leftover fabric are my starting point. I find garments in Irish charity shops, take them apart, and imagine them again—from denim bags to refashioned outfits. I’m sharing the real process: the first attempts, the mistakes, the lessons and the joy when something comes together.

My African roots bring a love of Ankara prints, colour and storytelling to what I create. A panel, a trim, a lining: a little connection to home, stitched into a new beginning.

This is a space for slow, honest creativity. Whether you’re learning to sew, love upcycling or need a little encouragement to begin, you’re welcome here.

Nothing—and no one—is too worn to be made new.

A touch of home

Bold pattern, a connection to my African roots, and a personal touch in every piece.
