About

I’m Caitlin, a fashion designer/patternmaker turned solopreneur from eastern PA. Since elementary school, I have been fascinated by fabrics and sewing. It was hardly ever a question whether my hobbies and passions would become my career. I studied fashion at Philadelphia University and have worked in the industry for over a decade.

As an independent designer, I can extend the lives of reclaimed textiles through upcycling and reuse, while still applying care and heart to each unique piece, all hand-crafted in my studio in beautiful, rural Bangor, PA. The Notch and Notion brand will always continue searching for responsible ways to reduce what gets thrown away and finding other streams toward circularity.
