Sewn or knit gifts

12


12 per hour - - Posted Nov 08, 2016

I have 23 years experience sewing and knitting, and will offer sewn or knit toys, blankets, clothing, or gift items for children and adults.

My experience includes pattern drafting and high-end quality hand-beading and applique

I am also available to spin yarn, as well as dye fiber for other spinners.

I have experience working on deadlines and with varying clientele, enjoy creative challenges, and like to use my imagination. I hope you'll let me create something spectacular for you.

Training & Qualifications


I have 23 years experience sewing and knitting, including drafting my own patterns, hand beading and applique, have sewn and knit both professionally and as a hobby, and enjoy working with clients.

I have my BFA in theatre arts, which has prepared me to work under deadlines, manage priorities, and given me skills to work well with a varied clientele. My many years experience with the craft has honed an eye for detail and a high standard of quality, which shows in my work.

Being a mother myself, I am also sensitive to the strain children place on their clothes and toys, and therefore make items for children to withstand a high degree of play. My items speak quality, and you will never get less than my best work.

Availability & Preferences


The best time to contact me is evenings, or Mondays and Wednesdays during the day.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

Erin was amazing and talked with me every step of the way! Sent me the tracking number for the package and pictures of the skin lion before sending! S...he even made more than one to try to get it perfect even though I didn't ask her to and loved the first one she showed me just as much.

About Erin Kempfert

I am currently a stay-at-home mom, with experience in business management, gym management, art and design, theatre performance, set design and construction, and just general hijinx and tom-foolery. ... I have 23 years of knitting and sewing experience, including drafting my own patterns, particularly for soft sculptures and toys. I believe handmade items have their own indescribable charm, especially those of high quality. I strive to make everything I produce the best thing I've ever made, and will only turn out products that I feel truly meet my standards of quality. As well as knitting and sewing, I also have experience in hand embroidery and high end bead work. show more
