(Working on an update for this story!)

I began sewing in earnest in 2000 when I took my first costuming class in Baylor University's Theatre Department. I have been fascinated by needle and thread, however, since I was a kid, when I sewed my own Barbie clothes and throw pillows.

My attraction to history and clothing has been lifelong. I am absolutely fixated on accurate re-creation of historical details and styles on costume pieces. I create fantasy and period reproduction garments using modern techniques. From Pre-history to the 20th century, I have done and continue to do research to achieve a correct historical look for all of my fashions. I use period-style fabrics when I can and everything is fully lined where it counts. The theatrical costuming techniques I use ensure that each garment will last through years of wear.

I have over 20 years of costuming and stagecraft experience and I love to use my skills to create beautiful and durable costumes. I am working on developing my own patterns that will work with my theatrical training in costume design and construction techniques.

My customized costumes are perfect for individuals for Renaissance Faires, themed weddings, SCA events, and period re-enactments.

I love history and I love clothing and I have opened this shop because I would love to share that with you!
