Hello I’m Tami. I’m 51 years old. I have 2 young adults and 3 grandkids. I live in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S. 🌲I think I started sewing in 2018. I sew a lot of knits but more recently I’m enjoying wovens. I made my first quilt last year….never thought I’d be interested in quilting. Sewing is such a journey. It’s become my therapy -a good outlet for work stress. I have just one real life sewing friend-my daughter’s friend whom I give sewing classes. Other than that, my sewing community has been virtual. A neighboring city is opening up 2 garment fabric stores and sewing studio next month which is huge in my rural neck of the world.

Hi Tami
Really lovely to have you here, and hear about your sewing journey. How exciting that you're going to have fabric stores and a studio so close to you!
What (if anything) are you sewing at the moment?

I actually just took a large fall themed jelly roll scrappy quilt top to get quilted this morning. I’ll see it in about 4 weeks. I’m pretty new to quilting. It’s super fun but my passion is sewing apparel. I’m currently making the Prelude Zipper pouch by Rivet Patterns. It’s a teaching project for my daughter’s friend. Her face lit up when she finished it today….made me so happy!!!
