Kathy D

Kathy started coming to the studio about 3 years ago. Her first project was a beautiful orange, double faced, cashmere coat. She was an experienced sewer but enjoyed learning new techniques and absorbed information like a sponge. We have become really good friends and I love her style. She plans her next project with discussion, fabric samples, sketches, pattern choices and then muslin.

She has produced some really beautiful garments, and even during the pandemic we were able to meet outside. Her sewing skills have now progressed to such a high level. I have missed having her in the studio every Monday morning, but hopefully that will soon change.

Enjoy seeing her creations! Jane.
