Hi and welcome to my online portfolio of sewing and craft work! I have a background in sewing, patternmaking and other general craftiness. For school I studied Theater in community college before focusing on Costume as an undergrad at California Institute for the Arts. After two years there I fell into work in various areas around the entertainment industry from costuming animatronic figures and patterning cold air inflatables to sewing costumes and making/repairing props for the movies. I also have crafty hobbies ranging from quilting and fiber spinning(yup,with a spinning wheel) to Revolutionary War Re-enacting with my boyfriend. As a Spinner I am a member of the Ventura County Handspinners and Weavers Guild and often demonstrate with them in the greater LA and Ventura areas of California. A fraction of the things I have worked on are on display here. I will continue to add images of past and more recent projects as they become available, so check back to see what I've been working on! If you would like to contact me with questions or work prospects please e-mail me at: dnalewis@hotmail.com Thanks for visiting!
