Natural Fiber Fabrics

Clothworks has a small selection of fine, natural fiber fabrics for sale by the yard. I love sewing with silks, wools, and linens; using good fabric can help ensure good results. Also available is a selection of what initially interested me in fabrics and sewing; organic cottons and hemp blend fibers. I am pleased to have recently added a fine-knit fabric blend of bamboo and cotton with just a touch of lycra. Clothworks is more suitable for the home or small business dressmaker, since yardage available may be low on individual pieces.

Testimonials

I can’t tell you the first dress Sally ever altered for me, but I can tell you it was more than a decade ago. Every year, for every bridesmaids dress, every special occasion dress, and every No Foot Too Small Gala gown, Sally answered my call, perfected my dress, treated me professionally, and charged me reasonably. In all these years, there was no one I trusted more.

Sally has been my “go-to” for alterations since moving to Iowa City over 20 years ago. Her craftsmanship and attention to detail is amazing. I’ve trusted her with favorite jeans all the way to my wedding dress. Her costs have always stayed affordable. Thank you, Sally!
Brooke G.
Sally was absolutely wonderful. She is so kind and efficient with what you’re needing done. You can tell she loves her work and takes pride in it. I’m so glad I had my wedding dress altered here and will definitely use her for any future needs!
