Introduction from Sheree

Hello Everyone,

My name is Sheree and I live in Germany with my family. I am originally from the US and moved to Germany a year ago (my husband's job sent us here for a few years). I have a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry and worked as a researcher for a large chemical company before starting my family. After my daughter was born, I decided to stay home for a few years to raise the little ones. Still home now for 6 years. I have no formal training in design or anything artistic, but I love creating things. I starting sewing when I was 12 and have always loved having unique clothes that fit my body. I have spent most of the last 6 years sewing for my kids and making custom and one-of-a-kind clothing for my dear customers. I am reshifting some of my sewing time back to myself--planning to make a new fall wardrobe and am looking forward to sharing my work here with all of you.

I love all things vintage and retro and have a wonderful collection of vintage patterns that I'll be drawing inspiration from. I am also a die hard fabric girl--love vintage fabrics and textiles as well as all the modern reproductions. I love the combination of retro/vintage and modern/comtemporary.

I think I have said enough for now. I do have a blog (www.shereesalchemy.typepad.com) that I use for my business and just for sharing life stuff.

Thanks for allowing me to join in.
Sheree
