About
I have been sewing for profit since I was 7 years old. My father was a tailor for entertainers in California, he taught me so that I could carry on the legacy and do what I can to keep a dying art alive. I have lots of happy customers and stand by my work.
You can see my designs at
https://www.sewingsouls.com
where you can read about the curriculum and see some designs by me and my students.
During these stressful times I believe that sewing is keeping me sane. I have made and donated over two thousand masks which were not available to the public when the pandemic first started.
I will be offering virtual classes until this is over.
I do charge a 20 dollar cancellation fee if you cancel or do not show which must be paid by zelle or paypal before I will schedule again
I love breathing life into fabrics and showing others how to revive old into new. Being full figured it is hard to find nice things in beautiful textiles that fit. When you love the finished product I know I have done my job well.
Tell me what you need so I can give you an accurate quote.
