The privilege of being entrusted with a commission is a great honour that requires commitment, dedication and high-quality execution. I have had the pleasure to collaborate with several wonderful companies and people, who all know and appreciate the value of handmade products.
I look forward to many more creative and inspiring commissions.

Mannz bageri
Bar stool cover
Mannz Bageri is a small and charming artisan bakery in Lund. Robert Mannz, founder and owner, wanted to catch the attention of passers-by even when the bakery was not open. At night, the bakery's bar stools were stacked by the window, covered with plastic so as not to get covered in flour when baking is in progress. Robert Mannz wanted to cover the bar stools with something beautiful and eye-catching. Together we decided that a happy, sleeping cat on a base in my patchwork style would look great.

Notion pouches for Fru Olesen´s yarn boxes
Pernilla from Fru Olesen Garn and Design AB had the brilliant idea to create a subscription box for yarn lovers, “First aid knit”.
Each box contains yarns and other accessories. I was asked to make 45 Sara pouches for the box in June 2023.
Haptic & Hue podcast
Huswif/Needle book
Jo Andrews, the host of the English language podcast Haptic & Hue, did a fascinating podcast episode about Huswifs, needle cases. It inspired me to create my own needle cases that Jo Andrews saw on my Instagram account. She contacted me and asked if I would make two needle cases for her upcoming giveaway. Jo is a weaver and journalist and is incredibly good at combining her professional skills with her passion. The Haptic & Hue podcast sheds light on many aspects of both current and historical textile crafts.
