Instructor Bio:
Sewing has become a lost art, but doesn’t have to be tedious, frustrating or time-consuming. Judi’s goal is to make sewing accessible, creative and fun with her Guerilla techniques. She teaches sewing without patterns and shortcuts for quick results, in a casual, non-intimidating hands-on class. Judi has been a costume designer for 25 years, and has studied theatrical costume design and worked with professional designers. Her own line, Cinder Garden Designs, features Upcycled Steampunk Burning Man clothing.
