Tammie has a lot of sewing experience and embraces every aspect of sewing with passion and enjoyment. She is very personable which makes sewing fun to learn. This was my first class with her after hearing so many recommendations from friends who have taken her classes. I look forward to seeing what more I can learn from Tammie in the future! My scarf isn't quite 'cured' yet, but working on it!

I took Tammie’s in-studio pants pattern class and was amazed at Tammie’s experience and talent. She’s not only an excellent teacher but an artist as well! Take her classes, you will be happy you did!

Tammie is an amazing teacher! She has put SO MUCH work into her online classes - there is a ton of content (videos, worksheets, etc) and it's truly amazing. The class sessions with her are fun and engaging and I learned so much from her and the other ladies in my class. I can't wait for the next one :)

Thank you!! This was such a great class! Tammie is an excellent teacher and so personable. Class was enjoyable and we left with a fabulous pair of pants we made ourselves! I would highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in sewing.

Tammie is the instructor I was looking for. She is friendly, very knowledgeable in all areas of garment sewing and provides a well defined balanced format for her classes. She sees that each student understands the process and offers extra tips in addition to those needed to complete the project. I highly recommend Tammie for any of your garment fitting and sewing needs.

I have taken many fitting classes yet I learned new things working with Tammie. She gave each of us individual attention and explained how to interpret the wrinkles - what they meant - as well as what to do about them. I would recommend Tammie's classes even for veteran garment makers.
