Alfred Shatkin Inc

We got started in the sewing business in the 1980's working in a boat canvas shop in Sausalito. I worked there for 4 years and learned how to make cushions in all different shapes and styles. I also learned how to take large pieces of canvas and shape them into all kinds of covers. This later translated into making slipcovers for furniture. I found that I was good at this work and I enjoyed it. I started my own business doing home interiors in 1993.. We enjoy creating unique dcor for my clients' homes. The things I make tend to be much higher quality than something mass produced. I also sell high resiliency foam that is expected to last at least 15 years, along with a line of beautiful fabrics called Greenhouse Fabrics and can also source Sunbrella Fabric and Vinyl. I can have fabric samples sent directly to you so that you can check the color in the setting where it will be.
