Custom Sewn Fashion at Silver Needle & Thread

Add A Bit of Color to Your Fall Wardrobe With the fast approach of Fall we've been busy at the sewing machine creating some jewels to transition our style.  We chose organic cotton, some beautiful linens from around the world, a gorgeous merino heathered wool jersey and an interesting blend of recycled hemp and organic cotton.  These pieces are easily interchangeable with pieces currently in our wardrobe and offer some interesting looks you'll love.  When you start to think mix and match you can see just how functional and complementary these pieces are. Of course you know that custom sewing your clothes ensures a perfect fit every time and you get to choose the colors that are right for you.  Finding the right dressmaker to design and hand sew your clothes is a liberating experience to be cherished. Statistics reveal that Americans wear only 20% of the clothes hanging in our closets 80% of the time which means 80% of the clothes (fast fashion) ...

Oftentimes, doing what we love and  feel our purpose is can lead to amazing discoveries of personal growth and opportunity. Please allow me to explain.  As a professional dressmaker and fashion designer I have the pleasure of working with individuals and small business owners from around the country and now world.  Recently, I  was contacted by First Nations, Cherokee Bear Clan Indian member Blue Eagle about creating a special project from Quebec, Canada.  Blue Eagle is of French Canadian, Pawnee, Algonquin and Abenakis decent, he's also a well respected Shaman, vocal artist and businessman.  He read one of my articles about organic and sustainable fashion and decided I could help with his project of creating a very special garment, authentic to Indian dress, symbolic and of the earth.  I must admit upon speaking with him and understanding the requirements I was a bit leary if I could provide the service, but I wanted to try.  Th...

Silver Needle and Thread is proud of all the exciting events that took place in the last year, so we're taking the time to highlight some as we continue to move forward helping women to be fabulous in 2014! A Fabulous You Seminar Our first seminar, held last year, was a great success where the chance to really teach women about fashion came alive. The activities and empowering discussion allowed so many opportunities for real women to discuss throwing out the hype, unhealthy fashion, and how to get down to being fabulous. It was an enjoyable experience to answer questions about topics like, "What color palette am I?", "What is my body type?", "What is organic fabric?", and of course to also try on the organic makeup.
