Alison was a dream to work with! Being from the USA and marrying a Japanese man (aren't they an awesome couple???!!) , she wanted a dress that fused the two cultures together. We found an inspiration picture and then made all of the changes that she wanted. The embroidery design was custom designed just for her dress as was the pattern. Charmeuse satin was used to give a light weight yet regal look to the dress.

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.

For Anakin Skywalker Episode 3 Tunic, Tabards And A Sash In 6 Sizes,4 PeicesEverything turned out GREAT with this project. When I first went into it i was guaranteed personal satisfaction and that was 100% delivered and then some. I love the way my cosplay turned out and when seeing it in person, turned out just how I imagined it. Becky was also very, very good to work with. I was kept up to date, informed and communication was thorough. Honestly, I just recommend working with her because you will definitely get the value you desire :)

For Custom Mens VestIt took a while to complete, I requested my vest at a busy time from Becky.
However, I would definitely put in future orders. She is very professional and tried to keep me in the loop as much as possible. she put a very creative spin on things which made my vest look even nicer.
thanks again!

For susan's Mens ClothesBecky Armstrong, my contact person and creative seamstress, is awesome. I would recommend her most highly for any project. I had a concept in mind, without particulars, and she made it work for me!!!
My husband enjoyed his Valentine's cape, and we enjoyed the loving touches that Becky added. The gift arrived, as promised, the morning of Valentine's Day and was enjoyed by all. Thank you, Becky!!!
