Hi, my name is Tatiana. I’m from the south of Ukraine. I’m always open to new experiences and love learning.

For many years, I’ve been involved in traditional crafts such as felting, spinning, and weaving. Handcrafting is not just a hobby for me — it’s something I truly enjoy and have dedicated a lot of time to developing.

Recently, I’ve become passionate about leatherworking. I design my own patterns and sew the pieces myself. My father helps me with this — he’s 82 years old and full of enthusiasm for working with leather. Even though he spent his whole life working in construction, he now truly enjoys learning and creating alongside me.

By sheer chance, my small town was not destroyed in February 2022. Since then, I have been doing everything I can to support our soldiers and civilians. Like most Ukrainians, I am doing my best to contribute to a quicker end to the war.

I’m always happy to share my knowledge and experience, and at the same time, I’m eager to keep learning and growing.
