I would like to thank everyone who is willing to help achieve my goals may God bless you abundantly.

My name is Sheliphar a 27 year old. I started sewing when I was 14 years old back home in Malawi,unfortunately I did not have enough money to buy materials to practise my sewing, then I used to cut my mom's curtains and make something out of it by hand stitching, I remember my mom shouting at me that I'm damaging her curtains

I got here in Ireland in 2014, then in 2016 I gave birth to my son, I was bored being in the asylum system as a newborn the stress was too much, so using my social money I bought a tiny sewing machine the China one then I started buying bed sheets from charity shops then make small stuff for my son, the machine didn't last long because I was using it more that what it could handle so it broke then I stopped sewing.

In 2020 during the second lockdown I was really bored and wanting to find something to keep me busy so I decided to buy a bigger household sewing machine and some materials online, I started practicing different patterns from YouTube and reading, I got even better, I made outfits for my family and people started admiring them and asking me if I can make them as well, so that's when I launched my small business called "Shelie's handmade".

Since then I have now a very big dream to open a tailoring shop, sew wedding dresses, evening gowns, suits, altering clothing, trousers and everything you can ever think of, every time I watch "say yes to the dress" show I always smile and imagine if it could be me one day.

Achieving my goal has not been easy as I thought it would be, I'm really struggling even with basic things like website sewing tables, hemming machine and some other sewing materials, that's why I'm humbly here asking for anyone whom is willing to help achieve my goals any little money will do
