We hope that the following will explain how the fees are arrived at.

Sourcing: Finding, selecting and purchasing of suitable fabrics, fastenings, threads etc.

Preparation: Design, pattern making, cutting

Body Construction; machine sewing, making up, stuffing and hand-finishing.

Clothing: design, pattern making, cutting, making up, machine sewing, hand-finishing.

As you will realise, the construction, machine sewing, hand sewing and finishing are expensive in terms of time. The “Fees” in no way reflect the amount of time spent on each individual. However, each individual is unique; even if it was intended, no two would turn out the same!! There may be some aspects of the individuals or their attire which may not be perfect, but then - - who is!

The “Small Folk” are intended to bring Big People pleasure, a smile to a face, raise a laugh, be hugged, whispered to, and befriended

If this happens - we’re happy!
