Basic information about my Business
Right now I am booking up to 4 weeks out on start dates. Payment; I take half down at the time of booking and the remainder plus shipping when the Garment if finished. I do the work on a first come first serve basis. After payment is received I put you on my list and order the materials needed. I have inquiry’s daily about jackets and shirts and can only do about one a week. I can’t do any rush orders. After the details are set and payment is received I usually won’t email again until I am ready to start your jacket as I am sewing other projects but I encourage any questions you might have during that time. It takes 7 to 10 days to complete after I get started. I will let you know when I start the jacket/shirt and go over the details one more time.
I take payment through paypal, when an order is completed I send an invoice. You need a confirmed paypal account for this. Or you can send a money order or check but I can't put you on my list until payment is received. Shipping is $12.00 USPS Priority Mail for jackets and shirts and $16.00 for jacket and pants outfits.
All my Jackets are constructed with the utmost care. Only the finest fabrics, Genuine Swarovski Crystals, Lamb and Pigskins and Ultra-Suede’s are used in my Show Apparel. Each outfit is designed by me cut and sewn together by me. I do them one at a time and I do not out source any of my work.
Measuring for Jackets and Shirts
: There is a diagram at the bottom of the page that will help with measuring.
1. Bust; with bra on place one finger between bra and tape measure and measure around the fullest part. ___________
2. Waist: narrowest part between bust and hip, again with one finger between tape and body___________ then from armpit to waist ____________
3. Hemline: where you want your jacket hemmed at, around the body. Measure with pants and chaps on if wearing un-tucked.___________(one finger between the tape and body)
NOTE*To find the hemline put a well fitting jacket or shirt on with a collar. Measure from the back center base of the collar down the back to where you want the jacket to hit, and then measure around the body.
4. Length: Measure from the back center base of the collar down the back to where you want the jacket to hit._________
5. Across the shoulders: best taken from a Jacket or shirt that fits well from point of shoulder seam (where the shoulder seam meets the sleeve seam) to other side un-stretched.__________. best done with jacket or shirt on.
6. Arm length. Taken with arm bent from shoulder seam to wrist. Bending the arm takes up more fabric than straight-arm__________ NOTE*Hold arm in the position as if holding the reins or lead rope.
7. Bicep, measure around the thickest part of the upper are______.
I have a dress form that I will size to your measurements, that’s how I get the fit so measure carefully and if you have any questions please feel free to ask. Please let me know how you like your clothing to fit.
I do make pants for clients that are able to come for a fitting or I would suggest you contact a local seamstress in your area to have pants made custom for you. Or you can send a pair of pants with measurements to help with that custom fit. I can sell extra pants fabric for that perfect match.
Measuring for pants: It’s best if you can send a pair of well fitting pants as without being able to measure you in person a pair of pants helps with the fit.
