Quilted bags, stitched by hand in Pleasant Hill
Three generations of sewing, made into everyday carry pieces — cosmetic pouches, totes, and baby-shower favorites, cut and quilted one at a time.
Our Story
Passed down a needle at a time
I learned to sew at my grandmother's side, and that's still where every Sam & Maddie piece starts — one seam, pressed and pieced by hand, no shortcuts. Now I'm teaching my own daughters the same way, on the same machine, in the same small studio.
"Creating has always been where I feel most at home."
— Samantha, maker & owner
The Collection
Made to hold what matters
Every bag is quilted from 100% cotton, priced from real material and labor cost — no guessing, no races to the bottom.

How It's Made
From bolt to bag, by hand
Cut & Piece
100% cotton fabrics are washed, cut, and pieced to pattern before a single seam is sewn.
Quilt & Sew
Batting is layered and quilted, then every bag is assembled on the machine seam by seam.
Finish by Hand
Zippers, magnets, and linings are set and pressed before each piece gets a final check.
What's Next
New for the studio
A few new pieces are in development and will join the collection once they're costed and sewn.
