Sewing & Design, Owner of Sew Sew Lounge I teach beginners the basic steps & techniques to start sewing and to build confidence. Learn the fundamentals of sewing and get the skills you need to sew whatever you want! I love sewing and want everyone to love it too! I majored in textile and apparel design in college and didn’t know how to sew! Crazy, right?!? There wasn’t a class that taught sewing so I had to figure it out myself. It was a process of trial and lots of errors (and bad grades). But now I know what NOT to do and I want to share my expertise with everyone starting their sewing journey. 🪡🧵 If anyone is interested in talking sewing and design drop into my room: Simple Sewing & Quilting with Toni and Janell on Monday nights 8pm CST. I’ve just started a new interactive Facebook Group to build a community for beginners to answer sewing questions, to offer support, and to share helpful sewing tips & tricks. If you interested in learning to sew (or just want to discuss sewing 24/7) follow the link below: HTTPS://www.sewsewlounge.com/fb-group-page ...and get the Insider Guide to Sewing straight to your inbox! More about me... Mom to fur kids Honey 🐶 and Clementine 🐱 I’m half American, half Venezuelan. I grew up overseas in Belgium and Cyprus. I love international travel, especially when it gives me the opportunity to buy unusual and exotic textiles. I’m a fabric and pattern hoarder (thanks for getting me started Grandma). And now I find myself with 4 sewing machines (2 vintage, 2 modern) and countless boxes of fabric. Don’t get me started on my collection of patterns! I enjoy being scared. I love all things Stephen King; Joe Hill is a close second. Halloween 🎃 will always be my favorite holiday (and not just because I get to make costumes!) 📚The University of Texas at Austin ⚖️ South Texas College of Law 📍Houston, TX.
