Let’s work together to get the style that feels ‘you’

Colorful measuring tapes in yellow, green, pink, orange, and blue, tangled and spread out on a white surface.

I’ve been making and altering clothing for over ten years. I know how much difference a badly fitting strap, a dragging hem, or an awkward neckline can make to how you feel in an outfit.

It can prevent you from feeling your best, and create a collection of ‘some day’ items in your wardrobe that just never seem like ‘today’ pieces.

A simple alteration can make them your style, your shape, your most-worn pieces.

A wooden clothing rack with various children's dresses and outfits hanging on black and wooden hangers against a plain white wall.

Other clothes or items are so useful, so loved, that they wear through long before you might be ready to part with them.

Repairing and repurposing textiles can give them a brand new lease of life, and some items can be updated to be useful in a new form over and over again.
