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.

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.

| 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. I primarily teach sewing through the Parks and
Recreation Department but 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!
