What's the difference between Sew It Seams and Sēdər?
Sew It Seams covers your home textile alteration and custom creation needs, while Sēdər is our own brand where you can shop existing soft furnishing items.
What items can I have made through Sew It Seams?
Sew It Seams has a 30+ year history of creating high-quality drapery, which remains our most sought-after service. Please note that this is for the product creation itself, and you'd need to have your window measurements before I can quote & create.
Additional services available include bespoke creation of soft home furnishings, including cushion covers and throw blankets.
If you need alterations/repairs on existing soft home furnishings (including drapery), this is also something I can help with.
I have an existing fabric/piece of material. Can you turn it into something for me?
Sew It Seams specialises in one-of-a-kind soft furnishing items, which covers this exact thing. Providing your material is large enough for the item(s) you're after (and the item(s) are within my capabilities), I can turn this into a treasured creation for you.
How much does it cost for custom items/alteration services?
Each project is a little bit different as I take the time to ensure I'm tailoring my services to the specific needs of each person. Please get in touch with your item/alteration details, and I can let you know the expected cost (or let you know if there are any additional details needed to be able to quote).
