SAF-T-POCKETS Patterns – Marsha McClintockSAF-T-POCKETS is a small, specialized pattern company that fills a unique niche for travelers who sew! The goal when designing each pattern is to have hidden pockets that will accommodate the valuable items that we need to carry with us when we leave home. So whether you are going to the grocery store or around the world, the designer, Marsha McClintock, wants you to travel with piece of mind and in style. Marsha often hears from customers who have returned from trips about how grateful they are to have had their SAF-T-POCKETS garment and how they were envied by other travelers and she gets a lot of satisfaction knowing that she has prevented someone from having a bad experience while traveling, saved a shoulder from that nagging purse pressure and given someone piece of mind knowing their valuables are safely tucked away in their secure, hidden pockets. SAF-T-POCKETS customers often share their ideas for garments they would like to see produced. The customer input influences Marsha when she is creating a new pattern. The unisex styled pattern "City Safari Duo" # 2005 - a vest, is in answer to those who requested a pattern for men. This pattern has a version for the ladies also, so you can buy one pattern and get one for yourself and one for the man in your life. Anyone with a request or question regarding SAF-T-POCKETS patterns is welcome to contact Marsha and calls or e-mails are answered quickly as she knows that if you are sewing and have a question, you need an answer fast. “This past year I have been concentrating on our website, keeping it current and interesting. I am always looking for new products that will give our customers valuable travel items or notions needed for sewing. We also have fabrics and some very unique gift items on our website. Our website can be found at www.saf-t-pockets.com” For those planning a ‘Sewing Vacation’ Marsha McClintock also runs three-day sewing retreats that she calls "SEW INNS". They are held on the beautiful Oregon coast. The attendees complete SAF-T-POCKETS garments with the benefit of a great, fun loving teacher to help them along. These events have created a loyal following and many students return year after year for the learning experience and the great fun. In addition to the SAF-T-POCKETS patterns there are several booklets and "Snip Its" in the product range.
Men have been enjoying the benefit of pockets in their clothing for years. Women need to experience the feeling of knowing exactly where their valuables are and that they are safe. An added benefit of distributing your belongings in pockets is that the weight is evenly dispersed around the body. This relieves shoulder strain. Marsha often jokingly says to her customers, "The quickest way to lose ten pounds is to get rid of your purse!" |
