Sewing Lessons By Ruth
About
Lessons are catered to students desires - from basic sewing techniques to pattern altering to mending/alterations to repurposing. All lessons go with student’s desire to learn.
Ruth has been sewing since she was six and has been a professional seamstress for 37 years. She has taught all ages from 7-years-old through adult.
Some of her students won “Grand Champion” at local fairs with their projects.
I love to see students go on to sew on their own with confidence. It’s fun to see what they do on their own later.
