C. Moore Sewing and Designs means a lot to me. My first initial being “C” and my maiden last name being Moore is how I came up with my brand name. I say it out loud because a lot of times I have to literally “see more” in all I do through my sewing and designing. I strive for others to see more also. I aim to do the impossible through sewing and designing for my clients. My goal is to show who they are more vibrantly, that they gain a confidence they may have never experienced before or to tell a story from a lense that the audience never expected to see. I love to pay attention to small details in garments and people. I believe every little thing has a reason for being. One of my main design techniques is bringing together different textures. Ridges, embroidery, scales, sheers, and so much more can show multiple different sides of a character, but can define them as one person. That’s who I am. I have my soft and light moments as well as my boss girl, focused, goal oriented moments, with my sweet passion and kindness. It’s a way to view everyone’s individual uniqueness.
I have 10 years of sewing and design experience.
I graduated from one of the top fashion schools in the country, Kent State University.
My experience ranges from amusement parks, theaters throughout the country, bridal shops, and films.
I am a firm believer in letting God direct my life for His will.
