About
iDesign Pattern: iDesign is a Custom maker of clothes tailored to individuals. Custom tailoring is often a little more expensive. iDesign makes personal custom patterns tailored to individuals. iDesign will cut and sew to complete the custom garment. *** In the coming months iDesign will be featuring a Jr. Girls line on Futurelove.cool * Alterations: - Hemming $40 trousers, pants, suits, jumpsuits, jeans ... - Extensive overall tailoring (prices vary) - Suit cuffing of Jacket/Blazer $125 - Hemming 1/2 circular/full circular w/wo Lining $125. * iDesign works with patterns. iDesign can take a pattern from an original garment and tear it down. The original garment will not be returned in the same condition or sewn back together. * A digital download is a great idea if you prefer not to go with the personal pattern from iDesign. Find a PDF digital download of a garment in your size and close to what you would like, run it by me and I will let you know if it will work. If I need to makes changes to this downloaded patteren I will charge a nominal fee $60 (usually the case). * iDesign does not do Monogramming so please don't reach out to me if you are wanting this service. * Agreement: You will need to sign what is known as an 'Agreement' with iDesign which states what each of the parties shall provide to move the process forward. It is very simple laymen's language, so please don't see this as a deterrent. * Upon party signing the Agreement to move the process forward I ask for half the cost 'good faith payment' and balance upon completion of the service/good provided to you. Payment: Several options are listed in the 'Agreement". *Travel: If you are local within my surrounding zip code within 5 miles, no in-house fee. If you are 10 miles or less, $35 per visit. If you are 10 miles to fifty miles an in-house visit $48 per each visit. If you are 51 or greater in miles an in-house visit $100 per each visit. *Quilting iDesign makes handmade quilts, like those of Memory Quilts, Special Occasions, Holiday quilts. *I have worked with lace, satin, chiffon, cotton, burlap, wool, viscose, linen, cotton, leather, vinyl, polyester, and other other blends of fabric. * iDesign does furniture repair, the type of repair I do is "SOFT" outdoor/indoor furniture repair (cushions pillows, swings, patio cushions, etc.). * I carry some outdoor/indoor materials for soft furniture. Please ask and I will forward you those that let me know if you would like to schedule a consultation. * I also make curtains and drapery for any area of your home as well as many other small projects I might consider taking on. * Please feel free to reach out to me for quotes on pricing for individual projects * I consider sewing an art. The more you learn the better you will become. I offer sewing lessons to those who wish to learn the basics ($$). If you wish to learn pattern making from scratch I can also teach you, but serious requests only please ($$$).

It's the second time that I work with Christine- and am so glad I found iDesign Custom. It's a pity I can't choose all 5 of the items listed above, because I can recommend Christine's work on all of them and more. Add to it great advice she always gives, her vision, and her fast and punctual response. Thank you, Christine- I love my dress!

She did an excellent job and got it done very quickly. I wanted her to make some riding pants for me but I sensed that she really didn’t want to do I found someone else. She is a VERY good seamstress and I highly recommend.

Christine is very well versed in tailoring. She made an extremely difficult and detailed The Row coat for me. Just from the photos of The Row coat she was able to discern very detailed aspects of how it was constructed and educated me during the process. I cannot say enough of her talent. The coat was originally not lined but I chose a very difficult lining unbeknownst to me and she made it work. I highly recommend her. She is much much more than a professional seamstress. Her work is impeccable. She knows a lot about fabrication and is easy to work with. I highly recommend her.

I took my daughter's dress to iDesign for alterations to make the hem from straight to a high in the front, low in the back look. We could not be happier with the result. Christine was professional, friendly, and very responsive. My daughter's dress is perfect. The turnaround time was fast, and the price was very reasonable for the quality of the work. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
