I created Patchamima to have a platform to connect with community on the importance of slow fashion, art and sustainability.

Meet the Founder

Naima, born and raised in the Bay Area, CA, began her small sewing business back in 2017. She learned to sew at the age of 9, and began altering, mending, and embellishing her clothes. Whether making patches, bags, clothes or quilts, she always strives to challenge herself and grow her repertoire of skills. Drawing on inspiration from travels, culture, and nature, Naima creates unique pieces where the fabric can tell a story to be interpreted by the viewer.
