One Shoulder Women's Top

One Shoulder Women's Top

$75

Top was made for a client in California. Her idea was this top which was a vintage Vogue pattern. However the top was made with some changes. The top was lengthened and the shoulder was put it (pattern originally has an open shoulder) and the fur cuff was added. Shirt is made from red Jersey cotton knit. It is a wrap around shirt as well. The shirt wraps around the waist and a tab is slipped through the seam on the left. The left side of the shirt wraps to the back where it is attached at the tab. The top is stunning in any color and is a great choice for more formal occasions.

Custom sewing at its best! I do everything from basic mending to creating your dream wedding dress and everything in between. From cushions, to prom to curtains to Dance costumes, I can do it all.

I started sewing when I was in high school as a way to express my creative side. Both my mom and grandma were seamstresses and I found that I was pretty good at it too. While I never gave it up, life got to be hectic. We lost my younger brother when I was a senior in High School and then with college, getting married and having children it just got set off to the side.

Our first born was named Anthony Peter on January 8th, 2010. My aunt, who is determined to give every child born in my family a nickname, dubbed him Tony Bud (short for Anthony and Peter - my brother who we named him after and who had the nickname Bud - yes by the same aunt). Two months later my husband lost his job. In a way, I guess the saying "Necessity is the Mother of Invention" greatly applied to what would follow in our lives.

As it happened, my next door neighbor at the time needed new outdoor cushions made for her patio. I, in passing, said I knew how to make them. She was elated and went out that day, bought all the materials and wrote me a check for my service. It was at that point that I realized I could turn what was once a hobby into a business.

Later that same year, I started doing craft shows. We didn't have a name picked out yet for the business and when we were asked, my husband and I looked at each other and said "Tony Bud's". Thus Tony Bud's Sewing was born.

It has been 5 years now since I started sewing again on a full time basis. We now have three growing boys and run a "in town" farm with my parents. Our lives are full and very blessed.

I take great pride in what I make. For that reason alone, all of my projects always come with my personal satisfaction guarantee. You will always receive pictures of your item before final payment is due. Based on the measurements you send me, the item is guaranteed to fit. If alterations are necessary, I will cover the cost of said alterations.

I have helped to create stunning dresses for women, great coats for men, as well as something as simple as a blanket for a new mommy to be. I try not to limit myself in what I can do and I am always happy to work with anyone that needs custom work done. I strive to make your dream and vision a reality. I look forward to the years ahead and the many new people that my family and I will meet along the way.

    This was a wonderful experience! It was my first time using this website and having something custom made for me, and this seller walked me through it and never got impatient or annoyed and was always kind and understanding, even with how much a bother I was to them with my lack of timeliness and being sick and moving houses! They worked very quickly and always made sure to send me pictures of what they planned to do and checked that it was completely perfect! They were super kind and the finished nightgown is so pretty and perfect! It was exactly what I wanted and more than I could've ever hoped for, and I'm so happy this maker found me and was nice enough to make it for me! They worked hard to make sure every detail was just right and that it fits flawlessly and is very comfortable to wear! It's what I dreamed of so I'm so, so, so happy! I would highly recommend this maker and thank you very much, with all my heart!

    Becky did such an amazing job. My dress was the most beautiful dress I have ever seen! When I had problems picking fabrics, she was right there to guide me. She kept me up to date on everything she was doing with the dress, step by step with pictures! She even made a special trip to my house to do my fitting to ensure everything for my wedding was right. I will NEVER go to anyone else again! Thank you, Becky, the dress made the wedding perfect!
