5 /5 Ella Holmes: Finally - there is high fashion in Catskill!
I can’t speak more highly of this boutique - I’ve been going to the Made X Hudson shop sewing class routinely for the past couple of months and have loved every minute of it. Sergio - the designer and business owner - tutors me and a few other students on our sewing projects Monday evenings. I had zero experience coming in, and was a bit nervous when I realized that many of the other people in the class were advanced, but Sergio gave me all the attention I needed to learn how to use my machine, how to read and edit a pattern, and tailor my project.
We work in the ~sustainable and local~ factory space where we are able to use the big cutting and iron tables. You can also rent a machine or purchase materials while in class from the store below.
In the shop they sell vintage clothing, jewelry, accessories, bags, shoes, and sustainably made clothing from upstairs or from featured designers. They also host community events - like staying open late and serving food for Catskills First Friday and a knitting meet up on the second Saturday of the month.
