i've been sewing for about 20 years. before i could sew, i taped and stapled clothes together on my barbies. my degree is in costume design, more specifically, theatrical costuming. curious cat clothing consists of me, my husband, who shleps heavy things, and my number 1 minion, Erin, who helps (wo)man the booth at conventions. i'm a stay at home mommy to my son, gabriel and daughter, lillian. when Gabe is at school, and lily is napping, i sew/cut stuff out/clean/occasionally facebook/cafe world/eat bon-bon's (YEAH, RIGHT!).
I AM A FABRIC SNOB! if it's not cotton, silk, linen, or just feels pretty, i don't want to work with it. i have a big room of fabric/trim/buttons/patterns. so much fabric, in fact, that i had to move my sewing table into the living room, which is nice because i can watch sci-fi while i work now.
we're in the process of building a sewing studio in my basement. it's going to be so awesome to have a room all for me. with a door. that i can close! :)
i like to cater to plus size men and women, being a plus size girl, myself. we deserve fun and sexy things to wear, don't we? so.. with that in mind, feel free to peruse my things here or my website at http://www.curiouscatclothing.com right now, the best selling items are my hawaiian shirts (in the craziest fabrics you ever saw!), brocade corsets, and hats. i am always open to custom work and original ideas, as well. thanks for looking!
