Join us for "Perfect Fit Every Time," a masterclass dedicated to the art of achieving impeccably fitted garments with every project you undertake. This course is meticulously designed to guide you through the fundamental steps of taking accurate measurements—a critical aspect often outlined on a typical commercial pattern. Starting with reading and understanding the pattern, you'll learn how to discern the right size to cut by interpreting the information provided on the back of the pattern envelope and instructions, ensuring the design complements your style and fit preferences.

Whether you're a novice eager to start on the right foot or an experienced sewer looking to refine your skills, this masterclass is your key to unlocking the secrets of achieving the perfect fit every time you sew.

Happy Sewing! My journey from corporate America back to my roots in sewing is truly inspiring, even to me! I am the daughter of Charlotte, Beatrice, Juanita and Charlotte and my passion for sewing has 4th generation roots. At 8 years old, I sat on the porch sewing with my Granny and never stopped. She taught me all the needles and sewing and crochet stuck and a little embroidery, but knitting ? - UGH! Returning to sewing and teaching after a 30-year successful corporate career including a global pandemic, I learned I was dedicated to sharing my skills with others. Sewing is not only a practical skill but also an art form that allows for self-expression and creativity....and all of that feels really good. I learned to sew by hand and got my first sewing machine at 12 years old. I loved transforming old clothes into new, fashionable pieces, realizing my talent for upcycling and repurposing. Now, as I continue along this chapter of teaching others to up their sewing game, my wealth of experience and passion will undoubtedly inspire and empower you. I love sewing my style and helping others do the same. Would love to join you on your sewing journey just as Granny did for me. I was once told "if I learned, I must teach"...which is something that will stay with me forever.
