Sewing is my passion.
I have always enjoyed creating new designs, then drafting and sewing the outfits; seeing them eventually come to life.
I started with a sewing machine when I was 10 years old, and within a couple of years started making money with my sewing. I sold my first item to my junior high classmates. It was a clutch purse made from cloth placemats.
After graduating college with a designing degree I started my own business doing custom sewing, specializing in formal wear; wedding dresses; prom dresses; bridesmaid dresses; My biggest joy in this field came when I had my girls, as I got to design their nursery, make them toys, and design many of their outfits. Now I sew for my granddaughter!
8 years ago we brought a four-month Maltese, Henry, into our family. I made him a new outfit, then posted on Facebook, and since then, business has skyrocketed. Since August, 2015 Kari’s Fancy Pups has become my full time profession. I get to spend my time designing and creating dog outfits, which has been so much fun!
I have outfits in several stores. I provide my creations on Facebook and Etsy, receiving orders from all over United States and internationally.
I never thought my business would have grown this far in just a year; I can’t wait to see where my little puppy outfits take me. My next goal is to have my own specialty shop.
Thank you for all your support with your purchases.
Gratefully,
Kari Sawers
Owner of Kari’s Fancy Pups
