Sew corky was started in 2018 when owner/creator Amy Zygmont discovered the wonderful world of cork fabric. She began making purses out of the fun versatile fabric and hasn't looked back. She now has her creations featured in many local shops and also makes appearances at craft fairs and farmers markets. Check out her designs here. Don't see the perfect bag or wallet for you? Amy would be glad to make you a handcrafted original!!

Cork is a 100% sustainable product. To harvest the cork no tree needs to fall! The harvesting is done by specialized professionals and the tree is not damaged during the process. It’s just like shearing a sheep! In the following 9 years after each harvesting the cork oak will regenerate its bark and the cork will acquire a smoother texture. Considering the life of an oak tree is on average 200 years, each tree can be harvested around 17 times.
