OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Crowley's Custom Tailoring

Great deals and great craftmanship for men and women.

Just because there's no real economy and we all smell like patchouli doesn't mean that you have to look like you smell like patchouli.

Come find me in the marketplace or send me a message here with custom orders and inquiries.

I've been doing just that. Getting the dexterity back has certainly been a challenge. I can share some of the exercises I've picked up if you like.

[echopraxia]

That would be very good, thank you.

[goesdown]

What's your background?

[echopraxia]

In sewing ?

[goesdown]

Well I don't care about your personal background...

[echopraxia]

( good, she doesn't say. )

I worked as seamstress several times, it is useful profession. I made for myself also and my husbands and children. One of many skill I find it smart to have.

[goesdown]

An impressive resume. If I find myself with an abundance of work, you'll be my first call.

I was a tailor, but that was a few careers back. It's not one I expected to go back to.

[echopraxia]

A practical background.

I have been many things. All of them I think to remember. Just in case.

[goesdown]

There are some things that might not be so useful anymore. Witchcraft, for example. Don't think that'll come in handy again.

[echopraxia]

Not out here.

[goesdown]

Not anywhere I'm planning to go.

[echopraxia]

There is not much call for needle work in operations, I think.

( somewhere in there was the remnants of friendliness, and possibly a joke. )

[goesdown]

Lucky for me, I'm not trying to get into operations. Are you?

[echopraxia]

This moment no.

( another moment, who can say. she's tried and failed once before; that's unlikely to be something she leaves alone forever. )

[goesdown]

Keeping your options open? I can respect that.

[echopraxia]

I think people are never finished deciding what they are. It is good to ask question.

( what am i today? what will i be tomorrow? )
