Emily Marshall owns the custom workroom Emily Marshall Custom Sewing in Santa Rosa California. The one person workroom took shape in 2014 when her youngest went to preschool she offered sewing as a service on Craigslist. That started her off on a path she'd never imagined. Sewing mostly at night anything and everything from dog collars, zebra skin into rugs, sails for sailboats, a blackout lining for a circus tent, large production runs…. In 2017 she enrolled in fashions studies night classes at the local junior college to connect with other sewers and learn pattern making and draping skills she still uses when making slipcovers. Emily started offering after school hand sewing classes at her local elementary schools in 2019. Teaching kids from 4-14 years old has been the most rewarding part of her career yet. Over the years as her kids grew up she has grown her business. Emily has always loved sewing and being creative. She also loves the flexible schedule owning her own business has provided while raising her kids. These days when Emily's not in her workroom she's exploring the great outdoors or cheering on her two teenagers playing soccer and volleyball.
