Alley Poet's Pen: "Just Keep Sewing Girl!"
By Sandee Gertz | October 23, 2015 |
*One of an occasional series of profiles that Alley Poet likes to pen of local businesses and people who make Downtown Nashville unique…
Nashville, TN – They say that color and variety make a good neighborhood or city scape. Places where your eye has something stimulating to land on can invigorate a walk, or even change a person's perspective. Most of you know I walk the Downtown Nashville city streets every day.
In spite of the bulldozing going on in Midtown and the subsequent "homogenizing" factor such overdevelopment brings, downtown (and I know, I know East Nashvillians, you've got a major indie factor!!) still seems to have its share of local flavor. One place that never disappoints is Karma Clothing on 3rd and Church.
