In their words

I started taking in sewing when my kids were small and never stopped. Forty years later I have hemmed more pants than I can count, remade wedding dresses, and taught a lot of people that the machine in their closet is nothing to be scared of. I would rather fix a thing than throw it out — and show you how to do it yourself.
