Profile Information

About Me:
Retired in 2001 after 26 yrs with TN Dept Children's Services. Have been sewing since age of 7 and come from a long line of seamstresses. In college, I studied tailoring. Besides sewing, I love machine embroidery, needlework and photography plus collecting sewing books. In March, 2009 I started a sewing ministry within my church to do clothing repairs & alterations in exchange for a donation to the church. I also volunteer by teaching sewing to those who cannot afford to pay for lessons. I also have been helping the UMNC in their Refugee Economic Independence Program by working on donated machines to get them running. Even though, I have to use a wheelchair, I like to share my love of sewing with others. I am president of the Memphis Chapter of the American Sewing Guild.
What type of sewing do you enjoy?
garment, cross stitch, embroidery
What type(s) of sewing machine(s) do you have?
Pfaff 7570, Pfaff 4874, Pfaff 1371, & Babylock X-scape.
