The Sewing Room
Our grandparents understood the necessity of basic sewing skills. At some point in your life, you will need to sew on a button, mend a tear, or replace a zipper. Today, basic sewing skills are a forgotten art. It is our desire to share this art form and help you be more confident in your own ability to sew.
