As an Interior Decorator, it is so vital for me to partner with other professionals who are trustworthy and skilled and The Sewing Loft of Avon definitely is both. On top of their beautiful work, both Rachel and Bryan are a pleasure to work with. They are both extremely knowledgable and helpful and I would highly recommend their services. **★★★★★ — Susie Robinson, March 2017** > The Sewing Loft of Avon did beautiful work on two sets of draperies for me. They made it all very easy, they worked quickly, and the quality was superb. I would highly recommend! **★★★★★ — Sandy Jaques, Sept. 2016** > Rachel and Bryan are FANTASTIC. We have had a lot of work done with them and it is ALWAYS perfect. I recommend them highly. **★★★★★ — Candy Rhoads, Sept. 2016** > Rachel has done several project for me --slipcovers, deck furniture pillows and it has been perfect every time. The slip covers look like upholstery. The outdoor pillows get a lot of wear & tear they they still look like new. Looking for an excuse to re-do more inside furniture and let Rachel work her magic! **★★★★★ — Ellen Donshik, Sept. 2016** > We have been very happy with Rachel's work and have had her make many new window treatments and seat covers for us. We would not hesitate to recommend her to others and would definitely use her again when the need arises. **★★★★★ — jerry\_tarre, Sept. 2016** > Rachel completed a special project of 8 curtains to fit inside wooden shutters. They are perfect and exactly what I wanted. **★★★★★ — Mark A. Mcintyre Interior Designer Ethan Allen, Sept. 2016** > Bryan and Rachel are fantastic to work with!!! I have worked with them for almost 3 years on various projects. Their work has always exceeded my expectations!! Very well done the final product is just beautiful. I needed work done in a limited amount of time, and they have always went above and beyond for me!!!!!! **★★★★★ — HU-398272, June 2016** > I had a very pleasant and professional experience working with Rachel involving the custom swag window treatment she created for my master bathroom. Rachel was highly knowledgeable about all aspects of the project and assisted me in looking at the many options available. With her help I was able to find the materials needed to create the treatment I had envisioned. I have had several custom window treatments done in the past by others and always waited many months for completion. My project was completed by Rachel in a short amount of time and the end result was of high quality. I highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — De Aufiero, Jan. 2016** > I needed covers for three dog beds. My initial call was responded to quickly, and an appointment was set. At the appointment, I was helped to make decisions about the fabric and design of the covers. Once the project was agreed upon, I was kept informed of the progress. The dogs have been using their new pads, and everyone is happy. I would recommend working with Rachel and Bryan at The Sewing Loft. **★★★★★ — lvollono, Jan. 2016** > I had the greatest pleasure working with Rachel and Brian Short....

Can you please share information. Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)* A: That is an AMAZING chandelier and so unique! Thanks for sharing the photo; I am sure your client was thrilled. **Q: Transformed Master Bathroom** *(in Before & After)* This antiquated bathroom was a floral invasion. The new owners wanted a bathroom that was streamlined, current and had an organic feel. Black walnut custom cabinetry and mirror, vein cut silver travertine, river rocks, solar shades and Grohe fixtures including a fab oversized rain shower head and a steam shower were used for this transformation. A vestibule was added to house a linen closet. A: Thanks for the response! I need to put it on my wish list for when we finally redo our bathroom!! **Q: How do you order this slipcover from Avon? Thank you.** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi nichmarj, thank you for your inquiry! All of our slipcovers are individually custom fitted to the specific furniture piece. If you are interested, you can send us a photo of your furniture piece to sewingingloftofavon@gmail.com and we can give you a labor cost estimate. If a photo is inconvenient, please email the measurements of the width (at the widest point), the height (at the highest point) and the number of cushions. If the estimate works for you, we can discuss fabrics and make arrangements for taking detailed measurements. Thank you again and we look forward to hearing from you! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-13.*
