Calendar of Events

Are you looking for an event to attend in your new Stitchin' Addiction finery?  Then check out The Costume Calendar - your portal through time and imagination.

I would also love to meet you at an event!  I attend and host a variety of events - virtual and in-person - as a vendor/presenter, host, or participant.  Below are some of the upcoming events that I will be attending or hosting.

If you are wanting to discuss a commission or have a measurement or fitting completed in person, I would be happy to do this at an in-person event.   At vendor events, there is always a selection of ready-to-wear historical clothing at a discounted price for you to shop.
