Connie's Sewing Room

Connie Palmer has perfected many of the techniques that are important in garment sewing, changing our work from “homemade” to “handmade”.  In addition, she is a well known designer of children and baby clothes.  She enjoys all sorts of sewing, from appliqué and machine embroidery to quilting and is particularly adept at combining multiple genres of sewing in her designs.  One of her strengths is her ability to make the complicated seem easy, and her teaching techniques help bring many challenging components of sewing to everyone. 

 

Recently, Connie launched an online series called “Connie’s Sewing Room”.  In this class, she helps her students learn and review specialty techniques that she has perfected.  Through a series of videos and written (and illustrated!) instructions, Connie walks us through many of these methods.  


Join us as we watch Connie present different techniques each month on a video, then try to replicate her samples for our own binders.  In each of our monthly classes, we’ll address a different section of Connie’s online course. 

Debbie Ewing is an avid pupil of Connie’s and will walk us through this year+ curriculum
