My love for beautiful, luxurious fabrics, lace and all things related began at a very early age.  I began sewing at the age of 5 and haven't stopped. 

I am a romantic in my heart and soul, and so my progression into the Bridal and Formalwear Industry was a given.  I have been employed in the industry in one capacity or another for over 30 years. 

Today, I am able to pursue my passion.... sewing, designing, creating with lovely materials and helping you to make your event all the more special.  My specialty is working with vintage and heirloom garments.  I understand the special care that these fragile garments require and I love the challenge of finding a way to restore or remodel such a special, sentimental garment. 

Whether you need alterations, a custom designed gown, a dress for a child or any other "special event" garment, I can provide services for you.  I can deliver you the garment that you envisioned without compromise.  It will fit, be the right color, the detail will be exquisite and the construction will be professional.

I am trained in Garment Design, Garment Construction, Pattern Making, Garment Draping, and am familiar with professional industry standards for construction and alterations.  I continue to attend training and courses with professionals, so I am familiar with new techniques and available materials.  I proudly maintain membership in several professional organizations, including the Association of Sewing and Design Professionals, The American Sewing Association and The Sewing Guild of America.  I am a licensed business, insured and promise to provide nothing less than professional service.
