Applegate Apparel

Hi! I'm a professional fashion designer and sewing instructor with a degree in Fashion Design from Drexel University. With years of industry experience as both a designer and patternmaker, I offer a unique, hands-on approach to sewing that blends technical skill with creative expression. I’ve taught both individuals and group classes—from total beginners to advanced students—and I specialize in making the learning process fun, clear, and confidence-boosting. My services include traveling sewing classes where I come to you, as well as expert alteration services for garments that need a little extra love. In addition to teaching, I’ve launched several fashion collections through the Shein X program, and I bring real-world insight from working on production-ready designs in fast-paced environments. Whether you're looking to learn how to sew, refine your skills, or get something tailored just right, I’d love to help!
