- Shan

My name is Shan, and I am the owner and seamstress behind Shan Stitches. I grew up surrounded by handcrafts and have been sewing since I was a child. Over the last 15 years, I have honed my skills, attended fashion school, and worked in alterations shops before setting out to start my own business. While my background is in clothing, I have expanded into drapery, upholstery, and more recently brid

al alterations. I am happy to serve the Kingston and surrounding area and to provide a safe, supportive and inclusive environment to all people. I offer pickup and delivery services and I have a drop off location at Loads of Fun Laundromat in Kingston’s West End. I offer quick turnaround time and reasonable prices and a wide array of services including (but not limited to!) alterations, mending, household sewing and custom sewing. Feel free to reach out via text, email, or through this page!

Just breathing some new life into these stools for a client. Replacing the old, worn leather with some high quality upholstery vinyl will get a few more years out of these for sure!
