Welcome, my name is Nancy and I am your Seamstress of the Desert. Thank you for stopping by to see just what goes on here in the shop and sewing studio. All of the garments you see in the shop, on this website, and on related social media have been made by my hands. Fabric photos are also taken in the studio so you can see the wonderful colors in natural lighting.

The Seamstress of the Desert shop is where you will find distinctive, hand made, ready to wear blouses and tops, vintage style dresses, jeans ( yes, jeans, that fit, really), skirts and coats. Men's casual and dress shirts and children's clothing, too.

Each garment is made with love and care in the Seamstress of the Desert Studio located in the rear of the shop. In the studio, your measurements are carefully taken, you and I discuss your clothing needs and desires and you choose the designs and fabrics which fit your work and everyday lifestyle.

 The Perfect Top

These tops are the all time best seller in the shop. Pick a color, any color. Pick a print, any print. You can customize them to your liking by changing from the stand up collar band only, adding a collar, cap sleeves, long or 3/4 sleeve with a cuff. It is the classic cut of the bodice which makes this top a go to for casual or dress up. Fitted, with a vented, tucked out hemline, this top is going to put your T-shirts back in their rightful place of sleep and barn wear.

Starting at $98 for the cap sleeve shirt in %100 cotton of your choice.

Business Casual, Sonoran Style  

The man in this photo is not a model, but the photographer proclaimed him a natural.

Jerry owns Hacienda Flooring in Tucson, with locations Phoenix and Scottsdale so he is a busy, busy man who leads his crews and gets his own hands dirty as well. He still wants to be professional and crisp when he meets a new customer and shows flooring and designs and when I told him he could design his own shirt, he was all in. Jerry designed this shirt to have short sleeves with a cuff and divot for movement and comfort, made from Hoffman of California's Me+You line of Batiks in Seahorse. The Batik process produces the deep, rich, lasting color through and through on a crisp yet tissue paper light %100 cotton. A single pocket, with a divot just for jazz, front button placket with turquoise, square shaped cut and beveled glass buttons finish off this working man's shirt.

Starting at $100.00
