Barrowwight Stitchcraft

Welcome to Barrowwight Stitchcraft!

Here you can choose and contract custom sewing and costuming for any need.

Barrowwight isn't like most costuming stores; you'll notice first that there is no shopping cart on the site, and you'll find no color or material pickers here.  I focus on custom work, which means that I may be slower with delivery but you won't have to worry about fit issues and you can pick the exact material that you want.

I've been sewing since the late 1990's, for myself and others.  I specialize in costuming for LARPs, but also sew for theatric groups and Renaissance Faires.  Being an avid LARPer myself, I understand about the importance of durability in seams and ease of care; everything I make is expected to stand up to a weekend-long LARP event and then be thrown into the washing machine and dryer once you return home (very rare exceptions due to material choices).

I don't hold with astronomical prices, which is related to my LARPing but even moreso to the 10 years I worked at the Georgia Renaissance Faire.  There are people who will pay those prices - but I wouldn't, therefore my customers don't have to.  My prices are based primarily on material and trim costs, with a little on top for my time and expertise. 

Why "Barrowwight Stitchcraft"?  Since I'm so different than the other costume places, I wanted a name that was different too.  So many company names are light and airy - mine is dark and dangerous.  Plus, there's the added benefit of the link to my name!  Stitchcraft relates to what I do: it's magic, but it's not witchcraft - it's Stitchcraft!
