                                              Specialty and Custom Work
 
                           Focuses on specialty items ranging from proms, wedding attire, band uniforms,

These two scarves are made of silky and satin fabrics sewn together in bands.  Both scarves are faced with solid fabric.  One is trimmed with beaded fringe and the second buttons and beads .  What a fun look!

 
 

 
 
 
 
                                                                                                               
 
                                                                  These two Raggedy Anns were dressed in custom clothes to match two little girls' bedrooms.  Don't they look cute?

 


 

 

 

                                                                                                   

 

Especially From Karen also does custom holiday work.  This Christmas tree skirt is 70" in diameter and was a special order from a client near Buffalo, NY.  As a custom order, the client must provide the decorative material.  The fabric used for this skirt is a reversible brocade with a very silky feel.  The only limitation is your own imagination. 

 

 

                                                                                                          

 

                                                                                                           Here is the skirt.

 



 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gowns for the junior bridesmaids weren't available commercially. Esther asked me to make the gowns to match the adult's gowns. 

 

 

 

 

 Nicole's gown is made of bias-cut tissue

 faille. The fabric was a challenge to work with

 as it shifts easily while working with.  However, 

the gown turned out beautifully.       

 

 

 

 This note is from Salem County's Junior Miss.

 I made her dance costume for the talent

competition.  She became New Jersey's

Junior Miss.

The bodice of Maggie's gown is made of

beaded lace over a skirt of multiple layers

of chiffon.  Beaded fringe accents the raised waistline.

 
 
 
 
 
 Another young lady I made a prom gown for included

The Schalick High School Band Boosters came to me when a young lady wanted to be part of the band front but there was no uniform to fit her.  I took another uniform apart to alter it to fit.
