EVERYONE DESERVES A HANDMADE LIFE

Ms. Billingsley Apron Kit and Pattern

Inspired by American landscapes, history, and art,  Ms. Cleaver Creations makes embroidery, knitting, and sewing kits that combine high-quality materials with approachable instructions, because everyone deserves a handmade life.

June Cleaver was the epitome of the Mid-Century stay-at-home mom, who vacuumed in high heels and pearls. Nowadays, far fewer of us have the luxury of time June did to devote to hearth and home. Today’s Ms. Cleaver has a lot more vying for her attention. 

We may have less time, but in spite of that limitation, or perhaps because of it, the need to slow down and work with our hands, to make something unique and lasting, is strong. My goal is to help you to make time for what you love and bring a little handmade into your life.
