Design approach
Inspiration
I am always looking for new sources of inspiration. in addition to customer requirements, I am often inspired to start new creative projects by things I see in movies, YouTube videos, nature walks, or interactions with people.
Recycle, repurpose, and reuse
I believe in being a good steward and managing costs. I pick up interesting materials and supplies from garage sales and thrift stores so I can have them on hand for future projects...and I am always open to donated materials!
Creative challenge
I am constantly working to build by skills by learning new sewing/construction techniques and being willing to experiment. I enjoy taking on unique and creative design challenges.
Quality construction
Although I am not a professional tailor, I am a perfectionist and am committed to creating costumes I can be proud of. I value quality over quantity, so I prefer to focus on specialty costumes rather than mass production.
