What does my job as a small town seamstress invove?...
Mending, altering to fit, made to measure, banner edges, repair repair repair
Clown pants, floral pants, shortening, adding length, curtain hemming.... the list goes on....
I love the variety, but some days I need to escape and sit in nature away from it all!

It's been a while since I have posted anything. Life and work have been ticking away.
As always, there is so much variety in the jobs that come through my door!!
This was a really battered ( but still totally functional) massage table that a friend asked me to reupholster. She chose a lovely teal/ turquoise vinyl, and hey - presto!

I have been buying vintage patterns for years now, and I have quite the horde.
I've decided to lighten my load and sell off a bunch that may be useful to others. If you attend my workshop "Sewing Pattern Basics" you'll have first dibs as well as all the info on how to use them!
