About Me

Welcome! My name is Tracy McElfresh and I’m the owner of Tracy’s Sewing Studio. We are a small independent business located in Kettering, Ohio specializing in clothing alterations, sewing repairs, and group lessons for the beginner. Since 2004 I have been providing alterations for the public and teaching the art of sewing.

In 2009 I started selling my garments online nationally and participating in local fashion shows. In 2012 I opened an indie sewing and fabric shop that was a great stepping stone for todays work. I was lucky enough to write a monthly fashion column for the Dayton Daily News as well as my own sewing blog. My sewing blog received the 2018 Best Sewing Bloggers on the planet award. If you sew, I facilitate a meet up group, check us out on FaceBook, The Dayton Garment Designers Meet Up. It is open to all skill levels, ages and genders.

Turn around time vary depending on the season. Most are done in two weeks. Wedding season gets busy so it is best to plan ahead.
