Sofi's Stitches Information

Sofi's Stitches was supposed to be just a hobby-level business but by September 1999, something had to give. I had sewn my 300th gown that year and was still working in a full-time career as a reporter. At that point I decided to live life without regrets and focus all of my energy on Sofi's Stitches. Since then my business has grown to include 35 employees and more than 40 sewers at several manufacturing sites. My reproductions are sold throughout the United States and Europe. This business is my life and I set very high standards for quality and authenticity. I meticulously research each garment using historical sources such as period paintings, sculptures, and illuminated texts. I study the techniques that were used 500 years ago to make garments that are housed in museums today. I even supplement my research with information from archeological digs.
