About Virginia


Bio

I share with kids and adults my passion for sewing creative clothes.
I built a studio of my dreams inside the historic Mansion at Sanders Estate, 5516 S. 277th Street, Auburn. I have a cutting room, studio with four deluxe machines, the most current patterns and more than 100 bolts of fabric. My students do not need to bring anything to class unless they desire. Classes are one-on-one and last 2 hours.
