What I do..
I primarily tutor Sewing classes, but I also tutor Crochet, hand sewing and other seasonal crafts. I have been sewing since I was a little girl using my Grandmothers sewing machine. I never met her but I am a firm believer that I got my sewing love from her, it is in my genes. I want to keep the old crafts alive. It makes me happy to pass on my knowledge and inspire a new generation of crafters. My mantra is "I have never met a craft I don't like". I am still learning, there are new tools, new techniques or better ways of doing things, I have plenty more to learn.
Crafts are my passion, my love, my life & my therapy...
