Our Story

A lifetime of sewing. A shop of her own.

Lesley started sewing at 13. Years later, she was taking on small jobs out of her garage, building a business one piece at a time. In 2015, she opened Lesley’s Upholstery.

Today, with family working alongside her, she brings that experience to homes, restaurants, and hotels across the Coachella Valley.

She’ll welcome you in, give you her honest opinion, and help you find the right direction for your piece. From the feel of the fabric to the way a seam sits, she cares about the details you’ll live with every day.

The business has grown. The care is still personal.

The Desert Living Issue · September 2021

We made these green valances for a home featured in Palm Springs Life. Cut to follow the sweep of the windows, they bring a bold color into the room while keeping the view open.
