Altered By Amy

Altered By Amy Altered By Amy provides high quality professional alterations. Amy Clark Rine is an expert seamstress with 25,000 hours of sewing experience.

Those hours began when she learned how to do hand sewing before kindergarten. At age six, Amy inherited a ‘real’ Singer Featherweight sewing machine from her great aunt Daisy and the story goes on. She participated in 10 years of 4-H, went to college for fashion merchandising, sewed for two children and then worked in the home décor and toy industry for 14 years. So you could say, sewing was a per

sonal addiction for Amy. At other times, she managed the sewing process professionally. Too many projects to count, three patents and many products later, she still loves sewing. Currently, Amy does product development projects for small companies, photography samples, mini-production runs, sewing classes AND alterations. Amy has done so much sewing; alterations come easy to her. Amy is a perfectionist and very practical. She believes “all things are possible, all things are fixable”. As the customer, you get to decide. She is located in Newark, Ohio and serves customers in Licking, Franklin, Knox, Coshocton and Perry counties.

I love history, especially fashion history.👒👗👠

Today I looked down beside my sewing machine and found this old receipt lying on the floor. It was for a hat purchased from Anne Lapp Millinery at 14 South Main Street in Mount Vernon.

What fascinated me even more was realizing that the shop was located across from Ringwalt's Department Store.

The strange part? I have no hats in my sewing area and no idea where this receipt came from!

As someone who loves vintage fashion and the history of how women dressed, finding a receipt from a millinery shop was such a treat. It brought back thoughts of a time when ladies regularly wore hats, gloves, and carried matching handbags.

Does anyone remember Anne Lapp Millinery? I'd love to hear your memories or see any photos you might have of the shop. ❤️

75 feet of net cut. ✔️

Current status: buried in multiple layers net and questioning my life choices. 😆

Some days it's glamorous bridal gowns, and some days it looks like a dress exploded on my sewing table.
