Current Project and My New Sewing Academy Studio

Thanks for being so patient with me. I just completed my big move! That was alot of work. Did you know in my 53+ years of being a Master Tailor I have moved my shop 14 times!!!! I'm hoping this will be my last move! (smile). I'm loving my new place. My studio/academy is situated in the 34X37 Fabrics Store building where I have my space at the rear of the store. As mentioned before it's 2000+ sq ft of space which I have masterfully created a layout to accommodate old and new students. Enough of me talking about it, here are some pictures. I'm not completely done just yet. Still have some decorating and organizing to do but it's nice to be up and running in such a quick turnaround of time.

Here's some shots of the space....I have stations for everything---industrial machines, conventional, steam iron, industrial serger, blind hemmer, etc.

Now with students, it feel more like home that way (smile)

And to top it all off I've got my new sign in the window for all to see. I'm excited to be focusing on teaching and training up other tailoring/sewing professionals!!!!



Oh and by the way. I posted pics on my FB page mentioning I was at work on a new project. Well here it is. It's Butterick 6104. It's a jacket pattern but I'm converting it into a coat. I'm using a wonderful orange woven fabric which is pictured below. There's a special reason I'm making this coat and I'll be revealing it soon. Stay tuned!!!
