Sarah Mcmullan Design Description
I'm a dressmaker and fashion designer, I sketch and design the garment idea and I can make it right from the self drafted pattern up to full finished garment. I also offer a full alteration and repair service at competitive prices. My work is of high quality and professional and my service is friendly and personal. I deal in almost any type of garment and love making prom dresses, children's wear, bridal and wedding wear, costumes, and uniforms anything else I can dream up and give a go! I have a BSc in Fashion Management and am an associate member of the Textile Institute and have won awards for my work and have been sewing professionally since 1995. I design and make and sell a range of couture handbags : Boni Bag and a range of little girls dresses: Twirly Whirly Girly

This morning I will be mostly sharpening up some of my scissors, a weekly sharpen really helps with clean cutting ✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️ #sewingtools #handmade #sewing #fabricscissors #sarahmcmullandesign

This is a hell of a couture show from Georges Hobeika! Reminds me so much of 90’s couture, I love it! 😍
Having taken some time off this summer I’ve made the decision not to return to the bridal and formal dress alterations part of my business (nothing to do with bridezillas 🦖😅 all my customers have been truly great!! Honest!). I will no longer be taking in any new bridal alterations. I want my creative endeavours to go in a different direction for a while and Ive plenty of projects that I want to give my attention to that will keep me busy in my studio this autumn and my fabric covered buttons business is busy so it needs my time too. Thank you!
I’m in the wrong game! 💰💰💰💰
This stops at the 1960’s but still a wonderfully visual way to see the dramatic changes in dress silhouettes 👗
Some lovely hand sewing here, what a fab idea for cute buttons! 😍
This is how to make your own pattern direct on the model, it’s a wonderfully effective way to get a custom pattern 👍🏼
Hand stitching blind hems is a whole lot better when the sun shines! 😍🌞
