Osborne Village's Sew Dandee

Sew Dandee is one of the places you need to stop in to shop local. Owner and designer Andee Penner operates this great store which is a mix of her designs, local & international designers, and some revamped retro creations. When inside you will notice that it has a nice gel of clothing and home and clothing accessories of all styles. I like that much of the clothing that she chooses to feature at Sew Dandee are one of a kind. Many are flowing, bohemian, and somewhat whimsical while others are the other end of the spectrum with locally screen printed t-shirts, skirts, and bags. Sew Dandee features many local designers. To name a few: Wanda June, Juanita Klassen, Melissa Turner, Jaya Beange, Dizzy Dame, Spiro Creations, Experimental Designs, Gracious Designs, & Boomerang 360. These designers create unique clothing and accessories, most that cannot be found anywhere else.

Here is a bio from Andee's blog:

"Dandee Original Designs has been growing and growing every year since i started it up about 9 years ago!! my mom being a seamstress was the best influence to get me started and to keep me going! i'm a fibre addict and can't seem to stop creating!! from reworked and crocheted clothing and accessories to pins and magnets to belts and cozies and switchplate covers to whatever i think up this week!! each item is one of a kind! i'm all about d.i.y. and recycling fabrics, yarns and clothing making things fresh and fun! i sell my goods at my bricks and mortar shop, Sew Dandee in Osborne Village. watch out for new items on a regular basis here on etsy!! stay crafty!! and check out my blog for what's new in the land of Dandee!"
