PalmerPletsch International S

The Palmer/Pletsch International School of Sewing began in 1991 as a result of Tony Bosboom, owner of The Fabric Depot, who offered a classroom to Pati Palmer for the Palmer/Pletsch four to five day Sewing Vacations held ten times a year. Students from around the world as well as from Portland take these Palmer/Pletsch Sewing Vacation Workshops. (www.palmerpletsch.com)

Tony then asked Pati to operate a full-service sewing school between the Vacations. Since Pati had no more time in her life, she tapped Julie Foglio to manage the school which offers 1-day or several week classes and special events. Classes include fashion, sewing, knitting, quilting, and home decorating.
