About

Hello, my name is Andrea. Thanks for your interest in my little slice of the internet world.  

My teaching style is pretty relaxed, which I think really helps to ensure each of my students, whatever your age, will successfully sew every garment with confidence and ease. I know fitting plays a large part in sewing, but it shouldn’t hinder you from getting started.  That’s why I concentrate on demonstrating all aspects of sewing and garment construction from beginning to advanced.

    1. Wow!!! Thank you so much Sue. I know it is hard to always comment and say something, but I do know you are there. Pattern Review is always were we see each other. I am on Periscope now, as well as YouTube. That way you will get a really good serving of my fun teaching perspective. Thanks for continuing to join me on this journey.

  3. Hi! Any chance you would be willing to make a pattern from an existing dress for a little girl, and turn it into a pattern for sizes from little girl to teenage girl? How much would you charge to do that for me?

  6. Andrea,
    I have been watching your really helpful video concerning adding larger sizes to patterns. How should I measure when each size variation increase measures larger than the last? In other words, the increases are not equal measurements? I have subscribed to your YouTube site and look forward to improving my sewing skills!
    Many Thanks, Carol
