House feeling a little cold now that your holiday decorations are all down? Kelly Wilson, owner and co-founder of Weave Gotcha Covered! says these slower, calmer days are the perfect time to start prepping your home for spring family gatherings such as weddings, graduations, Mother’s Day and Easter.
A full-service custom design and fabrication studio, Weave Gotcha Covered! specializes in custom drapery and window treatments, bedding, pillows and cushions, exterior shades and motorization—-all the elements that bring warmth, texture, color and personality to a home. Kelly uses fabric to help make a space feel finished and coordinated, to enhance its style or to frame a view.
Kelly got her start creating the beautiful custom bedding and curtains for Mary Carol Garrity and her clients at Nell Hill’s. The only custom company in town that is full-service, Weave Gotcha Covered! offers in-house consultations to help homeowners clarify their vision then designs and fabricates custom pieces in their shop. An array of fabrics and samples are available, plus they can find any fabric a homeowner may have seen in a magazine since they are not a representative for any one particular manufacturer.
“We’ve worked all over the United States,” Kelly notes. “Many of our clients have multiple homes that we travel to.”
Many of Kelly’s stitchers are women who have reentered the workforce. In 2014, Kelly moved to a space in the urban core that would be more accessible to her employees. The business also has participated in Operation Breakthrough’s 100 Jobs for 100 Moms, and in 2016 Kelly co-founded Sewing Labs, a 501(c)(3), in Columbus Park to teach sewing to those interested.
“Sewing has always been a huge part of my life,” Kelly says. “I started when I was just a young girl. Seeing what it can do for others has been a symbiotic circle.”
Weave Gotcha Covered! is open to the public, in addition to working with designers. No job is too big or too small. With six different commercial sewing machines of various sizes and five-foot by ten-foot worktables that slide together, they can accommodate even the largest windows. They have a full-time installer on staff, as well as a repair person for those unexpected mishaps. They can even turn a favorite dress or shirt into a pillow for a daily dose of memories.
