| Instructor Bio: | Hello! My name is Helena, I like to wear fun earrings and big colourful pants. I also know a lot about cartoons and comic books. I have been a textiles artist for most of my life! I tend to focus more on useful projects made from scrap or projects that involve repairing the things I already have! I believe that sewing is a skill that everyone should learn. |
