Art2Love sewing for children

Here I am with my good friend Tina LaChance, seamstress with Red Thread Sewing in Flagstaff. We are making super hero capes designed by children who are in the hospital. The organization Art2Love (see Facebook link below) helps kids with diseases and disabilities by bringing their creations to life.

from their page: "art2love empowers, encourages & elevates kids in crisis through art by bringing each child’s drawing to life as a soft sculpture or heroic cape.Hope & joy!"

Upcycling!  The wave of the future.  Bring me your tired, ill-fitting, and out of date and I will upcycle your oldies into goodies again!  Looking for a unique Halloween costume?  Upcycling may be your answer.  Just a trip to the thrift store and a stop by my shop and we can get you outfitted.  No one else in Northern Arizona will have a costume like yours if you get it custom made by Rachel Moon!  And upcycling saves on the cost of custom work.  With upcycling you can have a costume custom made for the price of regular alterations in most cases!
