Quilt alteration

 Took 14" off my client's quilt.   Lots of fabric to wrestle with!

 Advanced sewing needed for button replacement. Vendor had the button on a loop of self fabric. So when it came off, my client had no way to get the button back on.  So, I made a new loop out of the closest fabric I  could find.

 Fast turn over shortening of straps on stretchy party dress.  Must make sure not to lose any sequins!

 Copying and perfecting clients pattern so I can cut and sew for her.

pants shortening

 Pants shortened. Super  cute Trina Turk pants shorted for client.

 3 days, 3 client all with rush alterations. Top two are dresses for UW sorority/senior photos and the last is a cam type thing for a UW student who had to get new straps and back lacing in a few hours. I used some old piping and binding and made it work.

Nordstrom Fit and Fashion Show =

 This was fun. It focused a lot on fit.  Mostly women's undergarments.  Very educational. Then some Spring 2026 looks were shown.  Glad I went.
