History

Established in 2004.

I’ve been sewing for almost 40 years. During my years as a costume designer so many people encouraged me to open my own sewing business. I was able to leave corporate America and do just that. I have worked on projects for beautiful homes in Marin, San Francisco and Napa counties and have met wonderful clients along the way. I welcome a challenge, especially when a client comes to me with a project and says «Can you ???» I have had the opportunity to work with gorgeous fabrics and clients with a variety of budgets, servicing individuals and the interior design community. I am passionate about what I do and guarantee my work.
