I started sewing at the age of thirteen. I came from a family of seven girls and one brother. Sewing was a necessity for me if I wanted to have nice clothes for school. As I grew older I continued to sew mainly because I am vertically challenged at a mere 4’10”.I am self-taught, but have read several books and learned to fit myself in commercial patterns. This was very frustrating because with each pattern, you had to do that same fitting process over again.

I also enjoy painting and would like to incorporate fabric painting into my FitNice teaching. I look forward to helping other women who have fitting challenges and opening up their creative verizons.
