About Kerry
I began my sewing career in 1985. I found myself very interested in clothing but with a limited supply of funds. With some instruction from my mother and grandmother, I was soon on my way to becoming the best dressed kid in high school. My first professional sewing experiences came along soon after: hemming trousers for friends of the family and making prom dresses for other students at school.
I have worked at a variety of sewing-related jobs that have given me a wide range of instruction and experience, but mostly I have served as a freelance custom seamstress and tailor. Each project that I undertake provides me with another opportunity to expand my knowledge and expertise.
My equipment includes:
- Sailrite SR-200. Portable industrial sewing machine
- Brother commercial 4-thread overlock machine
- Elna home sewing machine (for buttonholes and fancy stitches)
- Craft Tool hand press for setting snaps, rivets, and eyelets
- Lots of things that cut, rip, pink, measure, mark, fasten, poke and sew
My other interests include Vedic Astrology, yoga and web site design.
