Meet Becca

I’m Becca (often known as Becca Buttons) founder of Sew Mindful at The Fold, Bransford, Worcestershire.

The magic of turning a scrap of fabric into something to wear or use never fades. I got my first very own sewing machine at 21 and have barely stopped making, repurposing and mending ever since.

Testimonials

“Thank you for the great alterations for my daughter’s prom dress – quite a bit of work involving alterations to the corset fitted top, straps and hemming. This made my daughter feel a million dollars for her special night.”

“We got Bec to put in a new zip for a beloved pair of jeans – it has given them a new lease of life! Bec was reasonably priced and did the work really quickly. I would highly recommend her services”
