My education, training and business experience
I have sewn at the professional level for twelve years. I have worked alongside many talented people in this industry, gaining valuable experience, which I have combined with my love for reading to learn as much as possible about my craft. I have had my current business since 2018 and have worked the majority of my adult worklife in sewing. |

When I m not working, I enjoy . When not working, I enjoy collecting antique industrial sewing machinery and sewing ephemera. This has lent itself well to my store because my entire suite of machinery is either vintage or antique. I also collect antique clothing, and frequently travel around northern California to open air markets or swap meets to find those garments. I enjoy travelling, particularly to historical sites, to see museums, try new foods, and experience interesting culture. |
