Teaching sewing

I have 30 years experience of sewing both clothes and soft furnishings. Encouraged by my Mum as a young child I made all my own clothes for many years.

Having worked for a while in the NHS I then managed a sewing and knitting machine shop for some years in London and thus gained an extensive knowledge of the machines both domestic and industrial and their abilities.

I started sewing in kindergarten.
Now I run a stitch lounge.

I teach sewing on vintage sewing machines.
The supplies I use come from thrift shops and donations from friends.
So sewing lessons are cheap, and I'm open to barter and negotiation.
Hanging out and sewing in the stitch lounge --> always free.

I have a great sewing and pattern library.
Lots of vintage books and patterns too, some rare with extraordinary information.
Plus I keep buying these really great new sewing books - like Anna Marie Horner's and Lotta Jansdotter's.

I have taught for 5+ years at the Textile Center in Minneapolis, MN. There I have taught beginner classes in almost every fiber art subject area - sewing tote bags, stuffed animals and pajama pants; making felted wool jewelry and fuzzy creatures; introduction to dyes and shibori; hand embroidery and tatting; and even beginning weaving. I really enjoy working with beginners of any age especially and I think introducing people to new ideas and techniques is my specialty. I have experience teaching kids, teens and adults.
