Coffee to Couture with Max Alexander
Clocking in at just 7 years old, Max Alexander is a self-taught fashion designer and sewing prodigy; he’s been threading needles and winding his way around bolts of fabric since he was 4!
Another creative pursuit in Max’s toolbox is making his mom a great cup of coffee. He absolutely loves the smell of it, and yes, he likes to sneak a sip of decaf.
As luck would have it, Max and his family are friends with the folks at our roastery, so on a sunny California day last November, an idea came together: We dropped off Groundwork’s used burlap coffee bags at Max’s house, and the rest, as they say, is history…
Watch Max work his magic as he sews the burlap sacks into a stunning dress here and here!
