I am a seamstress and designer who has been sewing for over 60 years. While living in Africa for over 8 years, I continued my sewing education from the tailors there who can make anything from just a picture in a catalog or a description and drawing. I love to upcycle garments and create new items from old ones, and can tailor and alter ready-to-wear as well. I make cushions, pillows, and other ho

me decor items. I offer memory bears (or cats, rabbits, etc.) and memory quilts or wall hangings made from special items to honor someone in your life.

A little critter had some fun chewing into this tent over the winter. I hand-stitched patches with some lightweight nylon fabric in three places and the client will touch up with some waterproofing.

This baseball catcher's protective equipment needed some repairs. The webbing holding the pieces together had shredded and was replaced. It took a bit of work to hand stitch new webbing to the good edges of the old since I was unable to remove the rivets. Hopefully, this repair gets this athlete thru another season!
