Hi, Sarah here! Just a little welcome and thank you for browsing my website to decide whether this is the bridal seamstress for you. I have been busy sewing since 2000 aged 20 when I asked Santa for a sewing machine and the rest was history. (I was already an arty crafty type you may say with the only gcse A being achieved in Art at senior school). I was hooked, addicted, obsessed with this tool. I acquired remanent scraps and used to muster up all sorts of things from tops to wear out with the girls, accessories and more. I quickly decided I wanted to learn more and enrolled on a short course at Bath College on evenings to make items of interest with like minded people. I loved every visit and wanted more. On the hunt for a Sept start I found a course at Radstock College learning City & Guilds Fashion Foundations Course. I was finally after all these years now in my element at college, as I was a legal secretary/PA since leaving school age 16. The tutor realised my wants and suggested I continue with her at her other college in Trowbridge, Wiltshire to undertake City & Guilds Pattern Cutting Course. Again it really opened my world up in sewing that little bit more. I stayed on for another year to undertake City & Guilds Bra and Corset Construction and found this course amazing. I just didn’t want it to end so in my final year, by choice, I signed up for a Tailoring Course and Glamour Wear Gowns Course. The love to attend a class once a week with like minded people creating items and getting on with projects was just simply the best time. As you can tell I really miss those years. Thank you Liz, a tutor, who I’m sure is retired by now, but in life it’s often about going with your gut and meeting the right people at the right time. I’m hope I’m that for you!

Once I felt ready, as I was at that time a part time Legal Secretary, it had finally found the right time to go forward with my passion and run my own dressmaking business from home. I’d married in 2004 and made my own wedding dress and the rest was history. Friends and friends of friends knew of my passion I spoke endlessly about and commissions started coming in. I was making dresses for them and enjoying every element from the designing together to choosing their fabrics, to the pattern making to the making. Then the icing on the cake is seeing them wearing your hard crafted work being worn with love at their special event.

Alongside creating I was now altering all clothing too. Starting the business in 2006 officially, but sewing for myself for years, I decided after a few years into it that the thing I wanted to specialise in was dresses and bridalwear. I now proudly like to call myself a bridal gown alterations specialist and feel I can adjust and make fit any gown old or new. So with over 20 years bridal experience inc my own dress I cannot wait to meet you and help create and make your dress of your dreams.
