Emma Smith

Emma started sewing as a young girl using scraps from her mum’s dressmaking to makes dolls clothes.

She developed that love through needlework class at school, and fashion and textiles courses at college and University, after which she spent time working in the garment making industry.

She now works as a freelance sewing tutor and loves sharing her passion with others, as well as finding time to sew most of her own clothes – she has the motto “if I can make it I can’t buy it”!

On the rare occasions she’s outside of the sewing room Emma endeavours to stay fit and healthy by running and training in a local gym.
