8. Little Kiwis Closet Blog
My name is Lydia, the designer behind Little Kiwis Closet. I live in New Zealand with my husband and my 3 children; Brylie, Elijah, and Portia who are the inspiration behind every single one of my patterns. So I decided to make her another pair myself, this started me on the journey of learning how to draft and grade patterns which have been exciting and challenging.
