My name is Tara.

I was brought into the world seventeen years ago; then picked up my first sewing needle shortly after.

I'm a highschool student who's prime interest and hobby lies within my sewing machine. I love art and I firmly believe that my hands were made to create it.

I sew all my items with my Brother XL 2600 and serge them with an Janome overlocking machine. I'm a perfectionist whilst sewing, thus my items are made to last.

You'll notice it's very unlikely two pieces of mine are the same. Of course it's intentional, I try my best to keep each piece unique. Who doesn't want that 'I'm the only person in the universe who has this' feel? It's nice. I get my ideas from an overwhemling amount of places; runways, vintage magazines, costumes, and anything in my surroundings. Then I combine them together like your grandmother's vegetarian stew.

Oh, and for those wondering where the name 'gladrags' comes from, here's the definition courtesy of dictionary.com.
