Hello, my name is Loraine, my sewing journey began with a hand model singer machine back in the early 70s when I was 11 years old. I made many mistakes but my passion for sewing continued to grow. I bought my first sewing machine and I soon knew that sewing was to be more than a hobby in my future. Eventually, I launched my sewing studio where I serviced more than 500 clients over the years. My business offered an array of services ranging from clothing alterations to couture wedding gowns. I mostly dealt with private clients and boutique stores, but I also facilitated clothing alterations as an add-on service for major retailers. The experience I gained through my sewing career later extended into a passion for teaching others how to sew. Consequently, Easy Sew Academy was born! My sewing courses are specifically structured to teach and help others learn the easier way of sewing.
