Welcome to the Factory!

Hello, my name is Madam Steampunk and I have just started a new shop on etsy for handmade clothing, costumes, and accessories. The website is: http://www.etsy.com/shop/madamsteampunk so please check it out. I specialize in making Steampunk, Gothic, Lolita, and alternative-looking clothing. Everything I make is of highest quality and is guaranteed to last a long time. I also do custom made clothes/costumes/corsets so please send me a message if your interested.
Im sure you want to know exactly what kind of training I have had, so you know that I am a proffessional designer. Well, it all started when my dad told me I couldn't be a butterfly when I grew up, so I decided to be a fashion designer instead. I made my first dress at the age of eleven (with grandma Cherry's help of course) and then when I turned fourteen I went on to apprentice for the local tailor. After a year of apprenticing I was put on the payrole and have worked there ever since. I have learned old fashioned tailoring, pattern-making, and corset construction. To this day I am still studying all there is to know about sewing, clothing construction, knitting, embroidering, etc.
I also have a twitter so stop by to take a look at new updated for the shop: http://twitter.com/MadamSteampunk
