Speedy Needle Bridal Seamstress

Speedy Needle Bridal Seamstress I offer tailoring and alterations for bridal gowns and eveningwear in Chesapeake, VA. I also make custom bridal veils and headpieces from heirloom lace.

I have sewn from the time I was twelve, and have always enjoyed making my own clothes. In high school, I made all the costumes for our theatre and at the University of Texas, I taught textiles and beginning apparel classes. I first worked as a bridal seamstress at Betsy Robinson's Bridal Collection in Baltimore for a few years. I also worked at Maya Couture in Norfolk for about a year before decid

ing to work for myself. I love helping a bride to look her very best through excellent tailoring. I'm efficient, I listen carefully to my clients, and I care about doing high quality work.
