Student Gallery

I’m lucky to have had such great students over the years.

I’ve just started teaching the Crafty Stitchers Club through two after school programs in Orinda, CA. These kids learned how to knit, crochet, embroider, sew sock monsters and — most popular — POM POMS!

Here are a few sewing projects by my fashionable students. Beginning students sewed tote bags, intermediate students copied their favorite pair of leggings, and my advance students sewed pants based on the Arenite pattern by Sew Liberated.

I also meet students for private lessons. I helped Allie modify a garment that she sewed from a pattern by adding darts to the waist and shaping the shoulders.

My students are excellent knitters and crocheters! You can get the fair isle hat pattern for free here.

I’m so proud of my painting students!
