Helpful hints re: custom sewing, alterations and cooking

9/19/2010

 
I have been sewing for years and cooking even longer!  With my Italian heritage and learning how to do things the "old fashioned" way I thought I would share some of this knowledge with my friends so I started a pattern drafting and sewing course at the local community college called Georgian College in Barrie Ontario.  It sputtered a little at the beginning, but now finally seems to have taken off!  I have a full class this semester plus my students will be competing at the Creativ Needlework Festival in Toronto in a feature called Project Catwalk!  This is the first time ever that part-time students have been invited to compete against the more established full time schools in the province.  I am so thrilled to be a part of this and even more thrilled for my students who will be competing! 
Something new on the horizon is my latest challenge; cooking classes!  I will keep you posted as happenings occur.
ciao for now
