Hi, I'm Katrina Marie, a Fashion Designer, Sewing Instructor, & Video Producer. I can't wait to help you Be a Sewing Teacher!
After being a lifetime fashion designer, I'm so super excited to finally be working on my "Be a Sewing Teacher"training for moms and grandmas, who want to pass their skills of sewing onto the next generation!!!
I am packing everything I know into this training including teachers licenses for all the sewing courses I have been creating for students for the last 7 years.
This is such a great time to be doing this because sewing is making a come back!
But more importantly is we have entire generation that didn't learn how to sew, and is unable to pass it on to their daughters.
I was one of those lucky girls that had a mom who was a self taught seamstress. She got the talent from her grandmother (she never met) who was a tailor for the Army.
Nobody else had the "sewing bug" in her family, and she was very poor being from a family of 10. So my mom started at 5, all on her own, with a hand sewing needle and thread making barbie doll clothing.
It's All Thanks to Mom!
I'm am so blessed to have got my sewing talents from both my mother and my great grandma. But...I was even luckier because my mom was able to sit me down with a sewing machine (and a serger) and show me how to use them at the age of 5.
Plus she was very supportive of my dream to be a fashion design as a little girl.
So that meant I was able to go much farther, quicker.
I was making doll clothing to sell at age 10, my own clothing at age 12, getting paid by a local dress shop at 15, and starting my own dress line at 17.
I couldn't have done this on my own or with out the support of my mother (and father), so quickly.
Better yet, starting out at such a young age gave me a life long love of sewing and fashion design. And, I have made it a life long career which amazing keeps growing to new heights.
Not only am I a fashion designer, but I also have made a series of kids sewing DVDs, and many online sewing courses for girls.
Time to Take it to the Next Level!
Now, I'm taking it to the next level and teaching others how to teach sewing and start their own sewing studios.
I have to admit, I've had my "Be a Sewing Teacher" training in the works for years, put kept putting it off because of other things.
Pregnancy and babies is one reason. I had two girls in the past 4 years and the baby is only 1 year old right now.
The other is I have been creating all my sewing videos and courses which are a part of my teacher training and licensing.
Sometime things only come together when enough things come together to allow them to happen.
I'm happy to say now is the right time and I'm so happy to "welcome" you into the world of sewing and teaching others to sew!
