The teachers are great, they all come from the field

I've been sewing since I was a child. I even made my own stuffed animals with a little help from my mother. I really enjoyed sewing, which is why I started this program. The program was definitely what I expected. I learned everything you need to know to make clothes. Pattern drafting, taupe drafting, sewing, hemming, stitching seams, inserting zippers—you name it. We don't design, we make. Textile knowledge and even fashion history are also part of the curriculum.
It was always fun, especially in the studio. You help each other and it's always a good atmosphere. The instructors are fantastic because they all come from the field."
