Carolyn's Sewing Journey:
Carolyn’s love for sewing began with the gift of her first Barbie Doll, sparking her creativity as she hand-sewed outfits from fabric scraps. Encouraged by her grandmother and her quilting friends, she developed her skills further in high school, earning an Achievement Award in Home Economics. Over the years, she’s sewn projects for family, friends, businesses, and churches. Now, as a recent widow, Carolyn continues to sew as a way of finding comfort, expressing creativity, and sharing her love for the craft with others. 💞

Bring your questions and leave with newfound knowledge as we explore the art of sewing together!
