Details

    Choose one of the fabrics here or contact me about using your own fabric or materials.  Prices listed include all fabric and materials.  'Silk' is the price for both silk charmeuse and silk dupioni.  In the checkout, you will specific the particular fabric and color you choose, as well as listing all necessary measurements for that particular item of clothing. 

For more elaborate projects, such as the Eowyn dress or a wedding dress, I will only ask for half the price up front.  You are responsible for paying the rest of the costs after the dress is completed.

I will contact you shortly after the purchase to clarify all details on the project.  For most dresses, expect arrival  in 3-5 weeks, for most skirts and blouses, 2-4.  More than likely I will complete your item quicker than this, but I do not like to rush my sewing and risk coming up with an inferior product.
