Designing, Restyling & Sewing Lessons
Private Lessons
I teach designing, restyling, and sewing lessons, privately, if you’re local to the Champaign-Urbana area. I love to share my knowledge with others, so they may gain a greater understanding of sewing and costume design. If you’re interested in getting one-on-one support, I’d be happy to help you!
Classes & Workshops
I also teach the following classes & workshops:
- Corset-making
- Pattern-making
- Embroidery
- Hat-making
- History of fashion
I have taught workshops for private events and for organizations, such as the American Sewing Guild. If you’re in the Champaign-Urbana area, please let me know if you’d like me to teach a class at your organization, event, or private party! I might be willing to travel, if it’s worth my while.
