Sewtropolis can accommodate small groups of sewers for events such as birthdays, girl scout troop events and guild meetings.

Who is Sewtropolis?


Sewtropolis is a combination of two words owner, Nikol Gianopoulos, loves the most; sewing and her Greek heritage. Nikol is a self taught sewer who made her first hand sewn gift when she was nine years old. Since then Nikol has made a variety of items including clothing, home furnishing and quilts. Sewtropolis is the result of a longtime dream of Nikol's; to share the gift of sewing.
