THE wedding and social sphere is not exactly at its peak right now and that has had devastating effects for all concerned. Still, Nambour dressmaker Deb Row- lands was determined to make the best of a terrible situation. Deb provides dress- making and clothing alterations and repairs from her home in Nambour and business is down due to forced cancellations. “A customer rang and asked how I was going and I told her I was still in my pyjamas and it was 4.30 in the afternoon and she burst out laughing. “So I allowed myself that one day of sad- ness and then thought ‘what am I going to do to get this business up and running again’. “So I have adjusted my business practices by offering a ‘Drop-Sew-Go’ service that allows my customers to still receive some of my services that do not require personal contact fittings. “Also as a thank you for their business I am offering customers a washable fabric face mask to help make them feel safer.” Deb can also launder and professionally press five business shirts for $28. Deb’s sewing blog explains the new ser- vice in detail. For more information www.ISew4U.org/ post/drop-sew-go or phone 0414 388 238.
