Personalizing Our Purchases

The concept of buying a garment such as a jacket, shirt, or blouse and adding a personal touch is gaining popularity. A little quilted trim on a pocket or collar makes a garment look personally designed.

Also quilted, patchworked, and monogrammed touches to linens make purchased items more valuable and attractive.
