For all fools new and old, welcome to the family! It’s about time you showed up. My name is Shannon and I love to sew. I started Tom Foolery five years ago to create a jumpsuit that actually addressed a woman’s biological need to pee. Our drop seat jumpsuit is now patented and has been seen on the runway at New York and Paris Fashion Week. But what I’m most proud of is our work in Kenya. We worked with Heri Sewing College students to create our Paris Collection and since then have been planning to open a sewing shop in Kenya to employ the graduate students. We are going back to Kenya in October and I am counting down the days! My first trip to Kenya sparked an interest in medical missions. I started working as an EMT during the pandemic and have recently transitioned to working as a therapist for kids with autism. I hope to one day work with doctors without borders and have made the absurd decision to take classes in biology and anatomy this fall. As an art student the only remotely scientific class I took in college was “Dinosaurs”. So buckle up. All this to say, I will forever be the proud owner and head sewer of Tom Foolery. Your jumpsuits are not going anywhere I will just be studying medicine in between making and shipping jumpsuits. So keep placing those orders! That was a lot about me, your turn! Email me back at [email protected] with a little bit about yourself. |
