About Me
My name is Jeanette Swanson and I have been
sewing for over 40 years now. I started sewing
doll clothes and tote bags when I was 7 years old.
I participated in 4-H fashion shows and won
awards for my clothing construction and home
decor.
When I was in high school I made clothing for myself, for the prom/dances and
also to decorate my room. When I got married and had my own children I sewed
clothing for them and decorated my house with handcrafted accessories.
Today, I want to pass on this skill that will last your whole life. No matter what
your age or stage is you will be able to create something beautiful and useful from
a piece of fabric.
Sewing has certainly come a long way since I was a child. Sewing machines are
practically computers now and they make sewing a breeze! There are so many fun
decorative stitches and decorative techniques available today that I can't stop
learning about them all.
My desire to teach sewing was so strong that I began the journey of getting up to
date on the latest sewing techniques and how to teach sewing. I completed the
Trained Sewing Educator course in 2007 that is offered by the Home Sewing
Association. I attend 2-3 conferences each year to learn new techniques from
expert teachers in their field. I am also a member of the Home Sewing
Association and the American Sewing Guild.
About Stitch Club
Stitch Club is located in Santa Clarita, California and was born out of an idea to
provide sewing education in a fun environment. Mobile Sewing Lessons make
learning to sew convenient for you. I will come right to your home. I also provide
group classes from time to time. Small class sizes allow for more personal
attention.
And we don't want to forget FUN! That's our motto...to make sewing FUN!
