About Joan P.
5.0
(4)
My sewing knowledge includes pattern making, garment construction, crafting handbags and dolls. My multifaceted fashion background started when I began making costumes for advertising campaigns, and A-list celebrities. With that being said, I am excited to share my craft with you!
We are going to have so much fun working on my lesson plans and your personal projects that will help you develop skills and knowledge that will last you a lifetime.
I promise I am extremely patient, and we will go at your own pace, to ensure understanding and enjoyment.
Looking forward to meeting you!
Joan

Joan was so patient. After not sewing for 35 years, I had forgotten more than I remembered. She was clear, concise and very knowledgable.
Joan is very personable and excellent at imparting her vast experience.
I'm signing up for more lessons. I'm excited about sewing again.
Thank You,
Kat' Taylor-Norby

I've known Joan for several years and can confirm she is a confident and honest person. She always has a kind word and has a great sense of humor. Joan has made several outfits for me that I have been very pleased with the outcome. Whether Joan is sewing for you or you are taking lessons from her, she is a professional.
