Learn to Sew with an expert teacher with 40+ years of experience

I am extremely patient and positive with beginners. I also enjoy the challenge of helping more experienced students bring their own creations to life. Lately, I've had several male students making and altering shirts. I've been sewing as long as I can remember and have been teaching since 2009.

About Tracy B.

4.9

(14)

I teach beginning, intermediate and advanced sewing. I have been sewing since before I can remember, for over 40 years. I teach sewing after school for several local private schools and privately at home for 10 years. I currently have 2 former online students in the Fashion Design program at Parson's!!! I teach students from ages 7 to adult. Males and Females. I have a great deal of patience with young and inexperienced students. With older or more experienced students, I enjoy helping them bring their vision to fruition. The first sewing lesson is typically how-not-to-break-the-machine, where the student learns about the sewing machine. Lessons on fabric and pattern layout are incorporated while working on individual projects. We typically progress from projects with only straight lines - pillows, simple skirts or drawstring bags, to projects that incorporate curves - shorts and shirts. Beginner students use 100% woven cotton for their first projects, slowly adding fabrics that are more difficult to use. Hand sewing and embroidery is frequently incorporated into projects.

Tracy B is an amazing and talented instructor as well as having a good sense of humor. I have been working with her for nearly a year. She is very flexible in our scheduling. I have a brain injury so she is extra patient with me and knows how to explain sewing lessons. I highly recommend Tracy for sewing lessons.

Working with Tracy was a pleasure. I’m a male beginner student and she made me feel comfortable and relax considering that this was my first class. She made sure I understood what she was explaining and demonstrating. I will definitely be taking more classes from Tracy.
