Peanut and Bumble garments are all made in the Calgary area by Bre van Besouw and a small team of home-based sewists. Bre started off doing all production herself in her basement and now trains and works directly with her team, still sewing some items herself to keep up with demand. Bre designs the garments and chooses the prints and colours each season.

“I love working with local artists every season to collaborate on a print. I create samples and tweak them as needed to ensure the best fit. I work directly with our custom fabric printer who provides us with beautiful quality cotton/lycra fabrics” – Bre van Besouw

After their patterns are cut and delivered to the team, Bre inspects each item for quality and provides feedback and additional training if needed.

“I love keeping things as local as possible and engaging with our local talent to provide beautiful clothes for the whole family!” – Bre van Besouw
