Welcome
St. Tabitha's Workshop is Orthodox Christian-owned, woman-owned, veteran-owned, and Made in America. I use digital design and a love of the realness of fabric to bring uniquely Orthodox ideas to fruition, whether for education or daily living.
St. Tabitha of Joppa has been a gracious patroness of my shop. Eastern Orthodox Christians remember her on Oct 25th, which is also the anniversary of receiving my first fabric design in the mail! The witness of her generosity, as described in Acts 9:36-42, is an inspiration to support non-profit and charitable efforts where possible.
Orthodox Christian Fabric
St. Tabitha's Workshop started when I started sewing for my family and wanted to make uniquely Orthodox items for our home and for my children. Now, you can also buy my designs at Spoonflower, printed on any of the 20+ kinds of cotton, polyester, and linen fabrics they provide (and four kinds of wallpaper).
Handmade Textile Goods
Made in Houston, Texas by Orthodox Christian women! We sew a wide variety of finished goods for the home. Custom orders are my favorite; use the "Contact" link at the bottom of the page to get started on something unique you've been looking for.
DIY Sewing Projects & Crafts
Most of the finished goods for sale on my website are also available as a DIY fabric or kit. Designed for beginner sewists, and appealing to experienced sewists as well, you'll find fabric, kits, and detailed instructions (with photos) for a wide variety of projects both at the link below and at Spoonfower.
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
The Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS) Orthodox Christian church school curriculum follows a Montessori mindset and encourages beautiful, realistic Sunday School materials. The curriculum's philosophy includes the importance of the teachers (or at least the parish's own community) making or finding the items used in the lessons. I have worked with the formation leaders of the American Antiochian Archdiocese CGS program to develop easy-to-make fabric items for the atrium: fabric with cut lines printed on it (no paper patterns!), Orthodox fabric designs in a child-sized scale and a fraction of the cost, and detailed sewing instructions with photos that a beginner can follow.
