Have an idea for

an event or a workshop

that you don’t see here?!

If 1:1 is more

your thing

I believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn, regardless of financial situation. If cost is a barrier: scholarships, sliding scale options, and flexible payment plans are available.

Please email me to discuss your needs.

  • Anna

    "I wanted to have more clothing making & mending skills for the impending apocalypse. Hillary is super knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor, a perfect guide in these dark times!"

  • Joni

    "It made me look at my wardrobe in a new light. I don't feel like buying anything new anymore, and when I'm thrifting, I'm not intimidated by clothes that don't fit."

  • AC

    "Hillary is super knowledgeable and never a gate keeper. She wants to share anything and everything that she knows with her students, and does so in a way that's super accessible."

  • Lori

    "Was nervous before the class because it’s been years since I’ve taken any type of class but immediately felt relaxed with Hillary. She was chill, funny, relatable, and I learned so much more than I expected."

  • Deb

    "You’ll definitely learn a lot and come out of class with new skills. I think of helpful tips Hillary has taught me whenever I sew now!"

  • Alyssa

    "Class with Hillary feels like a friend encouraging you to 'just go for it.' She explains everything super clearly and you can ask her anything at all. I felt more capable leaving each class."

  • DS

    "Hillary keeps the class moving forward while providing lots of individual encouragement and answering questions!"

  • Emily

    I had the absolute best time at Hillary’s sewing class! 🧵✨ She’s incredibly knowledgeable and teaches in such a methodical, professional way that makes everything feel easy to follow, even if you’re a total novice! Somehow, she also manages to keep you laughing the entire time, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

    I walked away learning so much and feeling inspired! 🙌 whether you’re looking for a cute girlie evening at a workshop or some more serious sewing, Hillary is your girl!

  • Jennifer

    Learning to sew with Hillary has been such a fun and empowering experience! Not only is she skilled, but she works with all of her students with the perfect mix of patience and humor. Her approach to teaching, and her personal style make the learning experience so much fun. Highly recommend!!

  • Sarah Lynn

    I've visited Hilary's studio multiple times now and I LOVE going to her space! She did alterations on a vintage jacket that didn't quite fit me, and I've also attended her classes. In her classes, Hilary is patient, inclusive, and kind and makes sure that all of her students feel encouraged. She's brings that same warmth and energy to fittings and custom work to make sure that my clothes fit me, not the other way around. I highly recommend!

Get in Touch

It all begins with an idea and a convo.
Looking forward to chatting with you xxh
