    Review of Beginning Sewing, November 07, 2008

    I have been taking classes with Sharon Blair since 2005. She is an amazing instructor as well as professional designer.

    From the most basic beginner's class to the most advanced, she teaches professional techniques and helps the student develop a solid skill base. In addition to sewing techniques, students learn about fit, alteration and how to add personal design elements to any pattern. She teaches with patience, experience, and incredible knowledge.

    I have learned, and continue to learn, so much from Sharon. She clearly loves her art and loves teaching.
