A sewing & alteration service with a difference…
I am an accomplished seamstress having over 35 years of experience specialising in bespoke dressmaking, one of a kind designer pieces made to your exact specifications. Be it a hand painted suit in rainbow colours, a costume of your favourite Disney character, like Captain Hook, the simplest silhouette for your wedding gown, or the most ornate & elaborate gown adorned with Swarovski crystals, beadwork, embroidery or hand painting. My sewing & design skills are endless.
Unlike many designers I am a trained pattern cutter & manufacturer, so when it comes to garment construction I understand exactly what will & won’t work. I make all my bespoke patterns using your specific measurements. I then make a toile before constructing the final garment.
I make curtains, blinds, soft furnishings & bespoke covers for unusual objects, as well as up cycling tired & worn pieces of old furniture that were destined for the dump!
If you already have a favourite garment that needs a new zip or a repair or alteration, then don’t throw it away, come & see me & I’ll bring it back to life. I alter & repair just about any garment, including leather, from turning up trousers, replacing zips in jeans, re-sizing & reshaping fully beaded ‘off the peg’ wedding gowns into figure hugging phenomenon’s, to repairing the lining in your favourite coat or just simply sewing a button on. No job is too big or too small.
If all that isn’t enough, I am also an artist who uses her original artwork to create fabrics, which I then turn into garments & accessories.
Take a look through my snap shot pages to get an idea of the sorts of things I’m capable of & the products I have available to purchase, then give me a call. You won’t be disappointed.
