Tutor : Sheila Jones

I am passionate about sewing and crafting.

I have been involved with sewing and dressmaking for all of my working life and nothing gives me greater pleasure than passing on my knowledge to people who want to learn to sew. I enjoy sewing, dressmaking, all types of craft and especially machine embroidery.

I have been working at the Abakhan store in Shrewsbury since it opened its doors in 2018.
