Nmosa Fabrics was founded by Theuda Tusajiwe. (REV Birmingham)

If you’re looking for custom alterations, fashionable designs and one-of-a-kind fabrics, you don’t have to go farther than Nmosa Fabrics.

Located in Woodlawn, Nmosa Fabrics was founded by Theuda Tusajiwe, a longtime seamstress with a passion for fashion. Originally from a small Walker County town with a distinct lack of fashion stores, Tusajiwe grew up sewing custom outfits for herself and her friends; today, she shares her custom designs and fabrics—sourced from around with world—out of her storefront in Woodlawn.

After over five years at 5501 1st Avenue North, Nmosa Fabrics is moving a couple blocks down the road to 5528 1st Avenue North.
