The Couture Seamstress
Because I have made the decision to retire and will be closing the studio, I am no longer accepting new clients. I want to thank everyone that has come to me for bridal alterations over the years. It has always been a pleasure to work with each and every one of my brides. Delbra

Get to know Delbra
Hi! I’ve been sewing since I was a child, and after 55 years behind the machine—45 of those specialized in bridal design—it’s safe to say it’s my greatest passion.
While I’ve spent a lifetime creating everything from cozy quilts to elaborate costumes, my heart truly belongs to bridal work. There is nothing quite like the joy of helping a bride or bridesmaid feel absolutely beautiful for such a big milestone. It started as a hobby and grew into a lifelong craft, and I still find so much fulfillment in making sure every gown I touch is as unique and special as the person wearing it.
