ABOUT ME
Hello, I’m Saskia
Welcome! I’m Saskia, a mum of two wonderful children and a passionate maker.
It all began with the birth of my daughter. I sewed many of her clothes myself. Eventually, I wondered what to do with them once she had outgrown them. Selling or giving away the special pieces simply did not feel right – they held so many memories.
So I began turning those clothes into something new, preserving the memories they held in a special way.
WHY MATIMA EXISTS
The clothes you cannot part with become part of your everyday life
At Matima, the clothes close to your heart become truly personal keepsakes – from baby clothes and children’s or teenagers’ outfits to adult clothing.
Whether it is a memory blanket, cushion, teddy bear or hoodie, every piece is individually handmade, preserving your special memories in a new way.
MY STORY
From hobby to profession
Today I put my heart into making individual keepsakes from your treasured clothing – from memory blankets and cushions to keepsake teddy bears and hoodies. I also make personalised school cones. My passion for sewing has become my profession.
With every keepsake, I aim to make the most of the clothing you send, preserving as many special details and designs as possible. Your favourite clothes become a creation that is uniquely yours.
