A place where we share and celebrate all of our differences and our creativity.
Sewists of all levels will be enriched by the conversations we have surrounding the creative and technical process of our sewing journey.
The Elna Jubilee & Elna Air Electronic are very similar to each other and for the purposes of this article I will be using the Jubilee.

I would love to say I’m a selfish sewist but that’s just not in my DNA. I don’t know how to do anything completely for myself.

Creativity has been a journey that has kept me returning time and time again to sewing. Self taught artist and sewist I’m interested in slow fashion and couture techniques.
I’m no expert but I’m passionate about sharing the amazing freedom in creating works of art. Some may call me spontaneous and adventurous but I've found it to be a great asset when it comes to being creative. I’ve allowed fear to hold me back for way too long and I hope in sharing my story you will take action to express yourself creatively.
I have been sewing for as long as I can remember. As my family had a sewing machine business, I've picked up a lot of different skills related to all aspects of sewing. My experience ranges from fun home projects to competitions as state & local fairs as well as the Make It With Wool competition.
