Sewing is a passion for me. I love the feeling I get when I complete a project. It is such a shame that schools are no longer offering this skill. I have enjoyed teaching children to sew and it is my purpose to make sure that this gift of art is not lost in our society. This fall I will be offering several sewing classes in my workshop in Suwanee, GA.
Come join me on a great adventure, that will last you a lifetime.
Give yourself the gift of learning to sew!!
