About

Maegan is known for her expert tailoring and cutting skills, and her love for sharing and teaching others the skills she has cultivated. In 2014 Maegan founded Shoppe and Tailor Ltd., a leading Toronto tailoring shop for suiting, bridal tailoring, denim repairs and creative garment solutions. After the 2020 Pandemic, Maegan’s tailor shop pivoted to become Shoppe and Tailor Studios, a queer-positive community maker space and rental sewing studio., where she teaches sewing workshops, classes and private lessons.

Maegan also co-owns Awl or Nothing, a soft goods and textile-based fabrication company that specializes in creative builds for commercial, marketing, artist and theatre needs. Maegan’s skills in garment engineering, entrepreneurship, and being the fastest-stitcher-in-Toronto are a vital part of Awl Or Nothing’s creative services.

Among other accolades, in 2018 Maegan was the winner of the title prize on SliceTV’s Stitched! for her design prowess, and has a Bachelor’s of Fashion Design from Toronto Metropolitan University.
