Offering top notch, quality service, I take pride in my work; building relationships, not just offering a service. I repair, alter and tailor clothing and other household items that require a professional seamstress. I want you to feel good in the clothes you wear, so come see me for your personal fitting.

Looking for a personal seamstress? Great! I'm your gal!

Sewing is a skill! It takes time and practice. Whether you are new to sewing, wish to brush up on skills, or looking for others who share your love of sewing, I am here to help! I offer beginning sewing classes for youngsters and adults. I offer monthly workshops targeted to practice skills, and a monthly get-together to complete those unfinished objects (UFOs!)

Losing a loved one is one of the most devastating things a person may go through. I offer memory items to help ease the pain and loss of a loved one, whether they are away for extended periods of time or have earned their wings. Memory items, such as bears, pillows, quilts, doll/bear clothes, are great ways to remember your loved one. I would love to bless you with a one-of-a-kind, personally unique item to help you and your family remember your loved one. Personalized items take longer to make and are usually higher in costs. Please contact me for a personal quote.
