Contact Guy AnthonySewing started as a hobby. 25 years ago I looked around and saw sewing everywhere. Clothing, upholstery, bags, covers, even structural. I felt an affinity to sewing and design. I come from a family of sewers going back generations. Maybe it's genetic.After graduating from Sheridan College Faculty of Fashion Design and Technology in 1991 I became self-employed as Guy Anthony. I went off to sew my way through life. Sewing is a trade as well as an art form. I try to respect both notions. There is always a technical component and because almost all of my projects are ''one of one'', there is a creative component as well. I have always enjoyed and savored the unbelieveable range of the projects I have turned out. I draw inspiration from my enviroment and especially from other artists.A friend of mine once said, ''I work in the morning because I love my job and work in the afternoon because I need the money.'' I have always been supported by family and friends and by those who have hired me to design and sew.
