Hand sewing or needlework is an ancient but durable way of sewing, repairing and embellishing garments. It is also very therapeutic. As a matter of fact most high-end clothing like wedding gowns and designer wear are hand sewn. This gives them the supple elegant finish that we all love.

I'm deliberate in selecting and assigning a repertoire that challenges students with appropriate techniques and allows them to ...
