Our specialty is custom costumes - historical reproductions, Cosplay, theater. St Paul, MN. We provide affordable custom sewing services in the Twin Cities area.

Please visit etsy.com/shop/tulipdesign for examples of previous work and items that can be purchased now. We make everything. Wedding dresses, Cosplay costumes, SCA garb, theatrical costumes, ethnic/folk dress, maternity and children's wear, quilts, drapes, cushions, etc. We do a lot of character / cosplay costumes. We are also one of the only places in the US to order unique ethnic/folk costumes

(like German/Austrian dirndls). Most customers bring us a photo of what they'd like and we custom make it. We can also do this via internet using your size or measurements, though in person fittings are ideal. Most things can be custom made in about two weeks, with much longer waits in September and October due to our Halloween rush. We work with nearly all fabrics and styles. We make our own patterns based on your measurements and preferences, so they fit perfectly every time (if you come in for fittings). All seams are enclosed or finished with an industrial serger. Our creations look highly professional. We do NOT work with lycra (swimsuits, etc.) or spandex, but we can work with some other stretchy fabrics. Though we do have industrial machines and can work with a variety of materials, certain styles of knitwear (especially with complicated curved seams) require factory-only equipment to look professional. Also, while we do home decor sewing, we are not set up to install drapes or other items in your home/business. Please contact us for details. Our storefront/workroom is located on the border of St Paul and Mpls on the corner of hwy 280 and University Ave. Street parking on all three sides of the bldg. As the bulk of our business is online, we only accept cash, check or PayPal. You can also order through our etsy site using visa or PayPal - contact us for details.
