Rebecca Prange

Hello, I'm Rebecca, most of my free time as a child was spent sewing clothes for myself and others. I challenged myself with new fabrics and techniques, eventually altering patterns to better fit my body.  Working in the field of alterations and dressmaking has taught me much and after discovering the joys of teaching in 1998, it would be my pleasure to teach you to make lovely things with needle and thread.
