About M.E.
I have been sewing since the tender age of 7. My mother taught me on the kitchen table in Michigan for my dolls.
I have always loved fashion & the use of old textiles.
I started Melody Elizabeth in 2009, I had made my first bag for myself out of a leather jacket and a Mexican run. I got asked so many times where did I get my bag, I decided to start sewing more. Now, my studio is based out of my home in the Indianapolis area.
I use vintage textiles and findings from the late 1800's to modern day, making “One of a Kind” handbags, clothing, jewelry and accessories for women.
All these beautiful fabrics loved by the past, some made with skill not to be repeated. I wanted to find a way to reuse them. I imagine all the hours spend embroidering a table cloth or finishing a needlepoint. My wish is to create beautiful, well hand-crafted, tough, yet very feminine goods, while accommodating modern necessities, breathing new life into vintage textiles and findings.
All designed and made by me. When you purchase a Melody Elizabeth, you are buying handcrafted art,
from my heart to yours.
