Caitlin Crisp has been sewing since she was twelve and never once second-guessed the dream. Today she runs a Ponsonby Road studio, a team of women she adores, and a life that includes Charlie, early mornings, and the occasional trip to Hong Kong during nap time. She is honest about what motherhood really does to your time and your sense of self, and why, after more than a decade in business, she is finally comfortable saying: she knows exactly what she is doing.
