It's becoming a lost art. Much will be at stake if we don't continue the art; for example, fabric stores and sewing machine companies would be affected and basically the whole clothing and related industries. You can save money by sewing for yourself, your family, for your home and make gifts for special loved ones in your life.
You can alter ready-made clothes, and as you gain experience have a clothing alteration's business, as there is a demand for this service. 4. You can have custom-made garments, quilts or crafts, expressing your individual creativity. 6. Sewing also opens the opportunity to earn extra money, so, in effect your sewing machine will indeed "pay for itself."

Thank you for allowing me to share a bit of my life with you. I am happily married to my husband of 46 years, and we have three married sons and six grandchildren, ages 3 to 23. I learned to sew at age 12 and have been sewing for 58 years. I was blessed to have a mother and grandmother who were dressmakers, and my grandfather who was a tailor.

Auntie Eileen was welcoming to us as we were living on the island for only 2 months. She taught me and my oldest daughter quilting and simple sewing projects. My daughter grew in confidence with a sewing machine and overall craftsmanship. The lessons she shared have been passed on to siblings and friends over the years. Because of Auntie Eileen our sewing skills expanded!

Oh what a blessing it was to find Eileen!! I was so nervous about the lack of options for wedding dress alterations on Kauai but I came across Eileen's Custom Alterations through Yelp and decided to give her a try. She was so friendly and understood my vision perfectly. She was honest with her feedback and truly made me feel like a bride.
She customized the lace on my bust area and took off length from my train. The dress turned out absolutely perfect. It was proportionate to me and I felt like a million bucks. It was a huge priority for me to find someone that was responsive, professional and
