Lisa - I was thrilled with your work- the bedskirt you made for my daughter's crib was beautifully sewn and exactly met the specifications you and I discussed. The matching pillow was also perfectly done. I look forward to working with you again, and I will be sure to recommend your work to my friends! - Lydia Schulz, New York, New York

Lisa herself is "someone so unique", her creativity, ingenuity and attention to detail far exceeded my wildest expectations. The window treatments for my new home almost made me wish I'd started with them and decorated around them - each one different, clever and drop-dead gorgeous. Lisa will make quite a name for herself in this business, I am fortunate to have found her. - Carol Rhodes, Marble Falls, Texas

Lisa, the owner of Something Sew Unique, put a huge smile on my face when my custom cornices and panels arrived. The work was amazing and it all looks so much better than I even thought it would thanks to her help with picking out the perfect fabrics to match my home. Thanks, Lisa. - Andrea Garza, Riverchase, New Braunfels  

The drapes are installed and they are drop dead gorgeous... - Jan Velayas, San Antonio, Texas

Dear Lisa, You are so talented! To take fabric and turn it into such works of art is nothing short of genius... I'm so impressed. All the window treatments are perfect, exactly what I wanted and I thank you so much for getting them finished and installed in such a timely fashion. My sons stayed at the house and called to say the window treatments were really neat and that they loved them. I thought that was nice to make a special call to express that... you have built a brilliant career as a designer/seamstress/artist/magician... again thank you very much. - Connie Stick, Horseshoe Bay, Texas

I have obtained the services of Something Sew Unique recently, and couldn't be more pleased with the service and quality that I have received. I am interior decorator based in CA, and had to find a workroom to service my Austin client. I interviewed several workrooms and was the most impressed with Lisa at Something Sew Unique. I thought it was going to be very difficult to do business across the United States, but she made it easy. She does beautiful work and has kept great communication with me along the way. I look forward to her weekly emailed pictures of my designs coming to fruition. If anything is unclear, she is the first one to contact me to ask questions and clarification. I would highly recommend this company. - Marissa Foss, Barton Creek, Austin, Texas and Woodland Hills, California  

Some time ago, on behalf of my mother, I contacted Lisa for seven replacement pillow shams of various sizes. Her response was fast and courteous. Lisa's estimate was professional, detailed and reasonably priced. We asked her to do the job and, well within her estimated time of completion, we received seven impeccably tailored pillow shams that fit like gloves on their respective pillow forms. The key to why this job of seven simple pillow shams is so outstanding is that Lisa completed this job from almost 200 miles away, with nothing to go by but my amateur drawings and measurements accompanied by emails. The fabrics we had chosen are not easy ones to work with, nor are they forgiving, but Lisa's seams, linings and hidden zippers were flawless. Over a year later, the shams are holding up beautifully. If a cut above is what you're looking for, this is your girl. THANK YOU, LISA!  - Patricia Helm/Jackie Rowlings, Corpus Christi, Texas

Lisa did a fantastic job with two custom shower curtains and chair/pillow upholstery. In the midst of working on this her home was flooded and she didn't miss a beat. Her work is sheer perfection and she has a great eye! Thank you for making our home more beautiful. -Susan Bailey, New Braunfels, Texas   [caption id="attachment_393" align="alignleft" width="150"] Fabric shower curtain w/contrast tieback[/caption]

I just wanted to say thanks again for the gorgeous valances... I appreciate your talents. - Ann Jackson, Marble Falls, Texas

We searched in stores and on the internet for the perfect dress for my daughter to wear in her Aunt's wedding and we finally found it in the form of a pattern. So with the pattern, some material, and measurements over the phone, Lisa performed the miracle we were looking for over 2000 miles away. The dress fits her perfect, and the quality of Lisa's work is outstanding! Thank you Lisa for making my 9 year old daughters dream of being a real princess come true! - Dannette Wigen, Two Rivers, Wisconsin

Dear Lisa, When I asked you to make custom chair cushions and window treatments for me I paid you up front because I was that confident about the quality of your work and I was not wrong. I have received many compliments on the chair cushions and the beautiful window shade you designed and look forward to many other opportunities to use your services. You are a gifted person and more responsible than many businesses these days, it is a pleasure to work with you. - Deborah Thomas, San Antonio, Texas

Lisa, Thank you, thank you, thank you for the wonderful job you did on the alteration on my bridesmaid dress. I will definitely use your services again in the near future. I'm going to recommend you to all my friends! - Meanette Salgado, Horseshoe Bay, Texas

The curtains are drop-dead gorgeous! I knew you would do a fantastic job, and they are just so exquisite! I love the weight of the finished product. My guests will enjoy a luxuriously appointed room, and also have the comfort of privacy and insulation from the elements. Thanks again for your expert care and attention. I will certainly refer anyone who needs something sewn! - Heather Fork, Spicewood, Texas

Lisa, I love the duvet! It is even more beautiful than I imagined. The workmanship is incredible. It far surpasses anything that one could buy in a store. My favorite part of the duvet is the shirring. You did an incredible job. It looks better than the one on their website! You are exceedingly talented and I look forward to ordering more things for my bedroom. Thank you ever so much. - Catherine Holden, Miami, Florida

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE BEAUTIFUL WORK!! You are so talented and amazing. We all love them so much...We continue to get many compliments on our draperies! - Ginger Tow, San Antonio, Texas

My curtains are beautiful! They fit perfectly. Your sewing is very expert. Thank you very much. - Sylvia Jennette, Austin, Texas

As an interior decorator, I use a great deal of custom soft goods in my custom projects. From bedding to windows, I have used Lisa time and time again with excellent results. It gives me comfort to know I can be absolutely confident when I work with Lisa no matter what the task. Her work is flawless, well priced and as a bonus, her turnaround time is fantastic. She is a diamond! - Salazar Custom Interiors 

I wanted to let you know I received the pillow sham I ordered. I also wanted to say that it's perfect. Thank you very much. It is great and I know she will love it so much. I will definitely consider you for any future sewing projects. Thanks again, it's absolutely wonderful! It really is! - Tim Gruber, Bernville, Pennsylvania

The comforter that Lisa made for me was just fabulous. I was searching for a comforter with a nautical sailboat theme but could no longer find one. I asked Lisa if she could make a comforter with a sailboat and I showed her some pictures. She made the comforter with the sailboat that is shown on her website. I love it and of course my baby does too. It is hard to find such quality work nowadays. Thanks to Lisa. -  Susan Bigham, Dallas, Texas

Lisa! The pirate costume has arrived, and I am absolutely delighted! It is everything and more that I could have ever asked for! I wish I'd known you when both my children were small. I have struggled through Indian princess, angel, Alice-in-Wonderland, and many many more costumes. This particular costume is going to be repacked and sent to my son's family (my son made his own costumes...usually out of cardboard boxes) in Kazakhstan where he is a lawyer for an oil company. This costume is for a beautiful little three year old girl who, for whatever reason, longs to dress up like a pirate "with an eye patch". Thank you ever so much. - Kay Childers, Alexandria, Virginia
