Desideratum Design
About
I have an extensive background in all types of sewing, patterning,draping, and construction. In addition, I also have a background in HANDSEWING techniques- embroidery, quilting, fabric piecing, as well as fabric dyeing and weaving.
s hold a MFA from Tisch School of the Arts, NYU in Costume and Lighting Design for Theatre. While attending grad school, I worked in the major costume shops in NYC and regionally. I spent 16 years designing costumes before beginning to teach sewing privately and at the college level. Having this background, allows me to work with many different shapes and fabric combinations.
My Website is www.barbarabecciodesideratum.com. In my bio there, you will be able to see my complete resume and my Awards as well as photos of my work and my student’s work.

I have also recently started a line of clothing for people in wheelchairs called e-Ispirante. There is an accent over the e, although my phone keyboard is not allowing me to put that in.
