Custom Sewing
Mass production provides low cost at the expense of uniformity. Customization gives you a unique opportunity to express yourself in a very satisfying way. Artistic touches, fit preferences, personal fabric choices, and design features will all be tailored to your request.
"Designs by Joy" specializes in unusual projects, working with you to design your garment. My customers have unique requirements, usually for creativity, fit, functional, or modest reasons, and cannot find satisfaction in store-purchased items.
Every custom project is unique. Prices range depending on the fabric choices, design details, layers of fabric, and added embellishments.
