    I went to a Yelp Event at Chateau Sew & Sew. The owner, Karen, taught us how to make cool ties for local chefs. So, I learned that a cool tie is a tie that contains a substances that cools when you wet it. Chefs use the ties to stay cool while working in hot kitchens. Anyway, the event was called Cool Ties for Cool Chefs. The ties were being given to the chefs for Chef Appreciation Week. Karen, who is the bomb by the way, did an awesome job teaching this old boy to sew. I had no experience whatsoever. I made a few cool ties. They turned out pretty nice, if I must say so myself. Chateau Sew & Sew is a unique business on Magazine Street. They sale fabric for those who are crafty at home. For those of us who are not so crafty (like me), they sale things like hooded towels for kids. They do embroidery. They also offer sewing classes. You may be wondering why a guy went to a sewing class....well, I'm vertically challenged. Don't laugh people. Short people need clothes too. I hoped to learn the basics for sewing so I could start altering my own pants. Karen did a wonderful job acclimating me to that scary sewing machine. I didn't even injure myself. Now, remember, this was a Yelp event to make some cool ties for our awesome chefs in NOLA. So, I can't say that I'm ready to alter my own pants. But, at least I can use the machine now. I plan to take Karen's basic alteration class in September. It only costs $55. That's super cheap. Have you had a pair of pants altered recently? It can cost $15-$30 and it usually takes 1-2 weeks to get your pants back. Ain't no body got time for that.

    This store is cute as a button. While I could probably operate a forklift better than a sewing machine, I've found Chateau Sew & Sew to be the perfect spot to help me out in a stitch, I mean sitch. I've had a handful of items monogrammed there including my bridesmaids' shirts and a personal poem on a handkerchief for my father for my wedding (side note: he loved it and wants to frame it). They help you pick from a variety of colored threads and font, and the turnaround was quick though you can pay extra for rush items. I also loved all their kids' items. They have these cute animal hooded towels that I'm just waiting for one of my friends' babies to be big enough to enjoy. Hell...if I were a kid...I've also found great accessories for friends as well, some of which were made in-house! I might not be picking up a pattern anytime soon (though they also have classes), but I will definitely pop in here every now and then for my monogrammed needs or something creative and custom for a friend!

    This place is awesome! I am totally a rookie when it comes to sewing but a coworker told me she'd teach me the basics. She recommended that I come to Chateau Sew & Sew to pick out some Halloween fabrics because I wanted to make some spooky bowties as my first project. From the moment I walked in, the woman who was working was so incredibly helpful! There are well over 100 fabrics in the store (including many holiday, Saints, LSU, and New Orleans themed ones). I had trouble picking only 2 because I wanted to buy at least a dozen! If you are in New Orleans and need some reasonably priced and unique fabrics, this is your spot. The person working also mentioned they have an online store on their website and an Etsy! I look forward to being a regular here.

    We did a southern road trip and stopped in several local fabric stores along the way, Chateau Sew & Sew was by far the best and our favorite. Susan was friendly and beyond helpful (gave me great sewing tips!), I told her what I was looking for and she pulled several beautiful fabrics that looked wonderful together. I cannot wait to get started on my quilt! We will hopefully make it down there again soon but until then I'm glad they take online orders! Thank you again, Chateau Sew & Sew!!

    I love my monogrammed beach bag, towels and sunglasses!! Thank you chateau sew & sew and Yelp!

    See all
