Hey all, after much healing, I am looking for one or two more piece sewing accounts. We won't be able to go back on the traveling and vending circuit for quite a while yet, if ever.

I particularly love to work on historical and fantasy pieces, and would absolutely love to be the gal who just makes all your bloomers, shirts and petticoats to sell at Ren Fairs or something similar. It would also be great to do hat lines for vendors.

I have to work out of my home studio as I'm still disabled from back surgeries and have to "pill bug" a couple times a day to be an efficient worker, but I am back to being a pretty efficient worker! As with my other clients, we can ship back and forth, and my rates are reasonable enough to make that pretty cost effective.

We own our own commercial machines.

Price per piece is negotiable, and I can help with design and patterning. If you or someone you know is looking for help with their business, please have them shoot me a message. I'm excited to be busy again.

Two surgeries in three months, and I'm finally back up and doing PT, sewing, and sending semi-regular shipments off to Historical Emporium to get them restocked! Going to be designing some new stock for them as well!

That said, who wants to come take a couple hundred updated pictures to get the online store back up and running? Those are spoons I just don't have yet!

Looking forward to being back in the costuming world!

So update... Unfortunately my disc reruptured and we are heading back to surgery as soon as possible (must jump insurance hoops first). I'm pretty laid up, so this will for sure be a year of no events, no teaching, just healing. I will take my couple wholesale clients who have been infinitely patient with me, and I am grateful for that! I hear this is a frequent complication and that second discectomy usually fixes it, with a slight possibility of fusion if they get in there and it looks like it can't heal with stability.

Did as much as I could today, which was quite a lot, and ended on the very boring note of winding a whole bunch of gray bobbins for zig zagging wire onto buckram. It's not all glamour and glitter!

Can sew two hours at a time now with no issues! Man, let me tell you NEVER ignore when your body says something is wrong and just push through. What a horrible journey!

We are going to reopen an online shop, but I'm ditching Etsy for good. The bills from them are just creeping higher and higher. Thinking about SquareSpace. Any experiences?

Constant companion for tax!

If you need a completely one of a kind gift, please comment under one you want! This will help pay my December bills as I get and recover from surgery on December 17! I usually keep my business lights on with wholesale sewing, and the OOAK pieces are art for my soul, but I won't be able to sew for half of the month and into a bit of January.

Love you all and I wish you the happiest of holidays.

Pic is the beautiful custom hat I just finished for the social media taxes!
