    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.

    Review of Portland Sewing, November 19, 2008

    Took my first class with Sharon recently, a Fit & Sew Pants class. I was blown away with her professionalism, her teaching style, and great sense of humor. But most of all, I was impressed with the new tips and tricks she taught me! I got a lot out of her class. I am definitely a fan! I will be signing up for more of her classes in the future. She provides A+ instruction. I would highly recommend her!
