Even through her professional life as a Secretary or Court Reporter, Betty was the person in the office that coworkers would come to for their sewing needs.
In 1990, she opened a sewing business and produced clothes for local dress shops in the Ukiah, California, area under her own label: "Elegant You". While producing a line of Camisols, Wedding & Quinceañera dresses, she continued alterations on the side for a large following of devoted customers. Then, 10 years later, when her husband retired, they moved to Las Cruces, New Mexico to relax, and enjoy retirement.
You can probably guess what happened next. As much as retirement was appealing, Betty could not just stop sewing. Sure, she has more time to just enjoy life and travel, but it was not long before neighbors and new friends discovered her talents, and you know the rest of the story...
