Learn with fashion industry tailor Bonnie
Hi. I’m Bonnie. I’ve worked as a photo shoot tailor for 25 years. This is exactly how I learned to sew. My grandmother taught me the essential skills one project at a time. She built my confidence with every new creation. This is the same step-by-step, project based method I will use to teach you. I can make pretty much anything. So can you.
Testimonials
Tej
I hadn’t ever used a sewing machine before. By the time the series was over, I was making and tailoring my own clothes! The sense of fulfillment I have from being able to hem my daughter’s pants, fix my husband’s zipper, or whip up a tote bag has been incredible!
Harper
From Harper’s mom:
I wanted to share how much your lessons have meant to Harper. She designed and sewed her own Homecoming dress this year. She had a specific fabric in mind and we found it at Sewing Studio. In one weekend, she designed and drew her own pattern (as you taught her to do!) and sewed this gorgeous dress and handbag.

Learning to sew through Common Sewing has saved me hundreds of dollars in alterations. I feel so empowered being able to fit things myself.
