Seam Divas Sewing Lounge

Do you know what you want to do when you grow up? After 25 years of talking myself out of working my passion, I’ve succumbed. Doing what you love and making things to provide for life’s basic needs, be it cooking, home building or sewing clothes, brings indescribable satisfaction. So, I’ve moved to a home expressly for the potential studio space, built that studio and offer the space to you, to he

lp you bring out the maker in you. I have sewn all my life, learning at my mother’s knee at the age of six. After torturing my dolls with myriad experimental fashions, I moved on to dressing all the neighborhood kids. Halter tops, quilted purses, and re-constructed jeans garments were donned by all the friends who couldn’t escape me. Read my blog for more musings on the sewing experience from me and other lounge visitors. I studied textiles, clothing construction and pattern making and taught beginning sewing as a teacher’s aid at Eastern Washington University and have continued learning and taking classes here in the Northwest throughout adulthood. I am a Certified Sewing Instructor (CSI) through the Palmer/Pletsch System of Sewing-- THE fashion sewing gurus for over 30 years. I love everything about sewing, from the whirr of the machine to the touch of the fabric, and I can’t wait to share the art with you!
