| Bio: | This is the blog for my sewing classroom and shop, Sew L.A., and also a journal for my personal sewing projects and corsetmaking.
Sew L.A. is located at 2945 Rowena Avenue in the Silver Lake area of Los Angeles, and it is here that I teach a huge variety of garment-making classes. I just hired a lovely lady named Alicia to help out, and between the two of us we can accommodate beginning to advanced students from the age of 8 and up. It has been incredibly rewarding so far to be expanding the sewing community here in Los Angeles! I will also be running an after school program for the kids at Ivanhoe Elementary and will definitely be having summer lessons for kids at my shop. Let's get those kids away from the computer games and back to making stuff with their hands! You can see the insane amount of classes here:

Folks can also come to Sew L.A. to play in the Sewlab - our cozy stitch lounge where you can hang out, drink some tea and work on projects. It's great if you have a tiny apartment, no space to cut, or just like to have some company!
Occasionally I will post projects or corset that I am working on. Lovely Creature Corsetry is the name of my tiny corsetmaking business - you can see many pictures if you look in my journal under the "eye candy" tag. I'm so busy teaching these days that I don't have much time for corsetry! But I'd be more than happy to teach you how to make your own...
