About

Costume Design transports us to various places and time.
Perfect Millinery is achieved when the finished hat
“seems to have been blown together by the wind”, a beauty of nature.
Pattern-making is drafting shapes on paper which create
three dimensional beauties.
When Draping one molds the fabric to create something amazing.
And when Sewing one gives life to fabric.
Welcome to my little part of the world. Enjoy your visit!
American Sarta

Moda esiste in cicli. Costume Design ci trasporta
in vari luoghi un tempo di.
Millinery perfetto si ottiene quando il cappello finito
“sembra essere stato bruciato insieme dal vento”,
una bellezza della natura.
Creazione di modelli sta elaborando forme su carta,
che creano tre bellezze tridimensionali.
Quando Drappeggi si stampi il tessuto per creare
qualcosa di incredibile.
E quando si cuceuno dà la vita al tessuto.
Benvenuti nella mia piccola parte del mondo. Buona visita!

'Sarta'

In a small town in the country-side of Italy an American creates!


Sarta is an Italian word which identifies a seamstress which is a woman who makes her living through sewing, and can be considered the female counterpart of a tailor. Sewing is one of the oldest human arts, as early humans were forced to together hides to cover themselves. While the clothing was originally design for the protection, ornamental clothing quickly became popular in many companies. Sarta also developed new techniques for sewing, because of their professon highly concentrated, and has contributed to the development of new fashions. Sarte also worked with mending and repairing garments. In the modern era, some people continue to use a seamstress to create custom-sewn dresses for special occasions, or for repairing favorite gear.

Oh a New Addiction!

So recently I just found out about Pinterest! It is not helping me with my Ipad addiction which began at Christmas and now this!

Well when I first began using Tumblr I was extremely in love! Just the fact that you are able to have a visual journal was wonderful. Now with Pinterest you are able to have Boards.

I love it because unlike Tumblr, you are able to organize your visuals! Using my Tumblr I like to post items which inspire me, with Pinterest my inspiration is more organized!

Anyone else with a Pinterest addiction? Stop by and visit Sartamexicana.
