Linda was very patient teaching my daughter sewing skills, including how to use the machine. She is also very creative and open to different ideas!

Linda is a fantastic teacher! She was very accommodating to my schedule and even took me in for a lesson when I showed up on the wrong day. She has a ton of projects to chose from, like making cat pillows and turtle pin cushions (they are too adorable not to make!) but also taught me how to take in a dress, sew elastic on a skirt, and fix a pair of pants. I will be using the skills I learned here for a long time! I highly recommend anyone looking for a sewing instructor to go to Linda!

I never leave reviews, but my experience with Linda was so exceptional I had to take the time to say that I would highly recommend her as a sewing teacher. In addition to teaching me the mechanics of my sewing machine, Linda taught me basic sewing as well as more advanced sewing techniques. She is warm and kind and a very patient instructor. Would highly recommend.

I wanted to make a garter for my son's fiancé using material from my wedding dress. I have very limited sewing experience so Linda helped me design and create a custom garter. She was very accommodating and met with me around my work schedule.

I had to take a class for work and contacted Linda. I ended up extending my lessons. Linda is a great teacher and she really got me interested in sewing on a personal level. She brought out a passion I never knew was there. I will definitely be back!!!

I came to Linda recently with an engagement photo dress that I really needed altered. It fit too big in the arms and bust along with the side seam. The dress had multiple layers, and linings, even a layer of eyelet fabric, and I truly wanted this dress to wear for a lifetime. Linda took the extra steps not only to do a beautiful job on the alterations, but she also was sure to stitch the dress so I can wear it for years to come. She had a great approach in starting from the top down and didn't even have to cut a single piece of fabric, and since I want this dress for years to come, it was the perfect approach. She was timely and accommodating to my schedule as I work a bit later! I felt immediately welcome and she welcomed my opinion on the fit and offered suggestions on how to make the dress fit like I dreamt it would. I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience and I know I'll be going back for many dresses and years to come! When in doubt, go to Linda! Thank you Linda!

Linda was a pleasure! I went to her for a sewing lesson as I got a sewing machine as a gift but had no idea how to use it. She was very patient in teaching me all the basics to get started. I loved that she taught me how to read and understand the noises of my own machine so I could go home and know what I'm doing. (She also offers to supply a sewing machine if you don't have one!)
Linda shows you how to use Youtube to search for new lessons so that you can continue learning at home. My favorite part was that she was prepared with a pot holder project that I sewed under her guidance and got to take home.
I would highly recommend Linda to others! She is great for all ages.

Very good. Was able to get alterations done while I waited. Price was very reasonable. Will come back next time I need alterations.

Linda was definitely the best very polite and full of sewing knowledge she took her time and explained every step of the sewing machine in great detail. Linda was very flexible with scheduling a time and date due to my uneasy schedule thank you and I can't wait to attend another session.

My daughter(age 12) took classes with Linda. She loved learning from Linda. Linda was patient with her and helped her with learning how to use her new sewing machine!

Linda was wonderful! She hemmed a multi-layered gown that was entirely too long for my frame. I received a very quick response with a reasonable quote and we meet within 24 hours. Linda was able to hem the dress while I awaited the finished product. I absolutely recommend her sewing skill and warm customer service! Thank you!

After my Beagles ate the arms off a leather chair, Linda made me arm covers that were so perfect you couldn't tell anything had happened! I was about to throw the chair out, now it is "back in business" Great job!!

Linda is extremely professional and patient in teaching sewing skills to my 7 year old daughter and I. We are learning so much in a short time and could not be happier. We leave each lesson with a completed project and additional skills to practice at home. This is a wonderful bonding experience and with such a talented and kind teacher.

I️ reached out to Linda with a last minute bridesmaid dress alteration, and I’m so thankful I did! Linda was extremely helpful and was able to get my dress to fit perfectly, even with the awkward boning in the dress. I’m new to the area, and will 100% be returning with all of my other alterations. She was extremely kind and welcoming, and beyond talented.

Linda did such a nice job making a poncho for my daughter who uses a wheelchair. She helped me design it to fit the chair and also accommodate someone who has little upper body most. Nice work by a most delightful person. Thank you,

Linda did an excellent job on my daughters prom dress length alteration. She provided us a private
fitting area so the length could be fitted according to my daughters preference.
The alteration was done professionally and on time, as promised.
I highly recommend Linda for your alteration needs!

She was fabulous! Very accommodating, didn't rush, taught little tricks of the know and was
GREAT with my mature 6 year old daughter. Patient and sought to involve her as much as possible.

Linda came to my home and we worked together to get the project done quickly.
She was great and I would recommend her for sewing help or classes.
