About Me
My name is Kathy Toll. For about 30 years I have been
a sewing enthusiast, the last 15 of which have been for the public.
I started out my sewing business creating coordinating sibling portrait
outfits in French heirloom and smocked styles. Gradually I evolved
into home decor sewing. Although financially satisfying, home decor
wasn’t challenging enough from a creative standpoint.
When my own daughter started competing in Western Horse shows, I found
my niche in the creation of beautiful western show clothing. I love
the challenge of creating one – of – a – kind designs that make the
riders wearing them look and feel unique. My clients tell me that they
appreciate the security of knowing they will never see the same showmanship
or western pleasure outfit on another competitor (the only exceptions
being Lead Line and Western Pleasure Pairs). That’s right – I do NOT
do limited editions nor do I sell the same outfits to riders competing
at different breed shows! All too often (through the process of seasonal
resale) the outfit that was originally seen at a Quarter Horse Show,
may later pop up at an Appaloosa or Palomino Horse Show. A rider wearing
a Katoll’s Western Show outfit knows that she will never see that outfit
unless it is in the mirror!! Custom outfits can be designed ranging
from simple to as elaborate as one could desire! I hope you find my
designs and policies desirable and I wish you all a safe and successful
show season!!
Kathy
