I want to express how much I am enjoying the Learn to Sew courses. Shaerie is such a clear and fun instructor who answers even the most basic of questions. I learned something new in all the Learn to Sew courses. I also love Judith's super positive support in the chats in the course community.
Judith is a gem! After 50 years of sewing and more fitting courses than I care to divulge, her expert guidance helped me FINALLY approach my bodice issues head on. I now love the geometry of pattern alteration and can move forward confidently to make clothes that fit!
I will continue to learn from her once I start the Creative Hinterland course!
My big goal this year is to learn to sew pants. The pants fitting course has been fantastic for me, partly because of the thorough video instruction, but Saremy’s support in the forum is a game-changer. I feel as though she is sitting next to me, fitting my muslin right on my body. It’s hard to believe she is doing all of this virtually through me sharing photos and her sending me feedback, recommendations, and personalized video demos of what I’m to do. I am not only learning the how-to of pants fitting, but she is making it possible for me to actually understand why I’m doing it. Thank you so much, Saremy!
Can I just say that I LOVE GETTING EMAILS FROM YOU ALL!!!!!!
Seriously! I'm so inspired everytime, no matter who is writing....the helpful tips, encouragement and lovely pictures are so motivating! I'm a new but passionate sewist, thanks to your simple philosophy of layering styles, being a conscious consumer, and making treasured pieces that bring you joy and creativity. I've made several of your patterns and am slowly working through the beautiful courses you send out!
Your course was transformative, absolutely life changing!
I’ve made so much more space in my heart and my house for sewing. I’ve got a wardrobe of 15 pieces planned, colors and fabrics in mind, a pile of decent goodwill fabric for making a first draft, taped and cut out a few of my patterns, and I’ve made two pieces so far.
This is a lot considering I’m a momma of five! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I LOVE your patterns, and have made three Hinterland Dresses so far!! I am learning as I go: just a beginner, but able to follow your brilliant instructions and the results are wonderful. Thank you SO much!!

Grab your pattern and join in!

I’m Meg, and I passionately believe that what you put on your body matters.
Your clothing choices affect your mood, which affects your thoughts, which make you … well, YOU.
I want you to dress yourself with intention. To clothe yourself in lovingly-made, well-fitting treasures. To dress how you want to FEEL.
I didn’t always have this clarity surrounding my wardrobe. Learn more about how my son’s devastating diagnosis shaped me into the confident and purpose-filled sewist I am today.
You want to love your wardrobe. You want the joy of making something beautiful.
But, let’s be honest, that long list of potential projects can be OVERWHELMING, making you feel anxious rather than joyful.
I’ve developed a Guide to Holding Time for Creativity where I show you a path to slowing down, finding mental space, and turning your sewing into a practice of self-care.
