Skyline Sewing

Introduction: I recently moved to Philadelphia from Brooklyn and am in the process of rebranding my company to match my new location. I have a BFA in Fashion Design from Pratt Institute and have been teaching sewing lessons to children and adults for over 4 years. I work as a freelance seamstress and patternmaker and am passionate about instructing others on developing sewing skills to enhance their creativity. I will work with you to plan and execute projects that are unique to your interests and skill level, whether it be creating custom pillows or curtains for your home, altering clothing, designing your own custom fashions, handbags, or accessories, or working with children to design and make stuffed animals, doll clothing, or kid's fashion! I also tutor fashion students that need additional support and guidance! Beginners are welcome! If you have a sewing machine but aren't sure how to use it, I am happy to help you set it up and guide you through how to use the different settings and functions. I have experience with sergers too! Children must be a minimum of 6 years old to take lessons. I will travel to you and teach you how to sew on your own machine, so you don't have to go anywhere or learn on a machine that is unfamiliar to you. We can talk beforehand if there is a specific project that you have in mind and figure out what supplies you will need to complete it. Duet and group lessons are also available! Sewing has been my passion since I was a teenager, and I love helping others to realize their creativity. I've spent years working on all kinds of sewing machines, designing my own sewing patterns, and perfecting my finishing techniques. While I enjoy creating my own designs, I get greater joy from showing others how to turn the ideas in their heads into actual finished creations that they can be proud of.
