Chicago Based Couture Boutique

My name is Sy, owner and creator of Studio Sy. I am a textile and craft artist based on the South Side of Chicago. I am incredibly passionate about things being done well AND beautifully. My sewing experience of 20 + years allows me to create almost any piece of clothing, through every step from sketch to reality.

Everything is done by hand, with attention to the small details that make the difference between manufactured and true custom work. Feel free to peruse the Gallery and see what I’ve cooked up. If you want something for yourself, your vision can be brought to life through my Commissions page. Enjoy!

I'm developing an obsession with throws, but I won't EVER be cold! Dual layers in bright colors makes winter better. #trustthevision #handmadewithjoann

No promises, just work. Before and after of a dress form given to me. She was LONG overdue for a makeover and I'm loving how she turned out! Fabric: @ssefabrics #studiosy #trustthevision #dritz #adjustabledressform

A loveseat that needed some love. Custom cut and formed foam, frame tightening and repair, hand painted replacement feet, and the usual spray of blood, sweat and tears. I'm beginning to think I can do it all 😉. #transformationtuesday #trustthevision

By far the longest thing I have ever crocheted! A custom made scarf pattern + more of that delicious Bernat Velvet = 7ft of warm fuzzy heaven! My last crochet project of the season because this whupped my butt 😅. #trustthevision #studiosy #bernatvel

Finished my striped infinity scarf with 2 colors of Lion Brand Vel-Luxe just in time for Chicago winter to start picking up. I'm ahead of the bitter cold & snow, if only by a few days. 😅 #studiosy #trustthevision #custompattern #crochet #lionbr

Addition to the stash!! I think I'm gonna do lots of stuff with some licensed prints because this sugar skull Darth Vader?! 😍😍😍😍 Don't even get me started on this "Made in Wakanda" print. Time to put in real work. I'm finally inspired!
