It All began with the Sewing Tool Belt
Store
Betty Ottesen is the owner and designer of HipNotions Tool Belts . She has been designing tool belts for professionals worldwide since 2010. Before that time she had been working closely with clients in the clothing and home décor areas. This experience included alterations, design, pattern making and production since 1989.
The sewing tool belt was first launched on Etsy and from there other designs were born working closely with clients to meet their organizational needs. Many prototypes were made and now a core of 10 designs have stood the test of time or in other words commanded repeat sales.
The Sewing Tool Belt was conceived out of her own need to stay organized in her sewing room way before 2010. The brand name, HipNotions was chosen with a double meaning. It is worn on the hip or it is 'hip' as in 'cool' and in the sewing world notions refers to sewing tools and supplies or the word 'notions' equals- ideas, thoughts, concepts.
Five designs are now production ready to be manufactured in the USA with more designs to follow.
