About
My teaching style is colaberative and supportive. Usually I will make the same project you desire side by side with you. Not only does it help the student but it also at times provides learning opportunities for me. Additionally In my studio you can try and work with any machine I have so you can experience different equipment and gain confidence.
I derive great joy by sharing any of my 30+ year of skill in sewing, quilting, crafting and technology with students.
