Hi I'm Lisa. 

I set up A Sewing Life in 2020 to share my lifelong love of sewing with as many people as possible.

I have been sewing since I was a little girl and through all of my patterns, tutorials and YouTube videos, I hope to inspire you to love sewing as much as I do :)

If you're new to sewing, I can teach you to sew. You will go from nervous to confident in super quick time following my Learn to Sew course.

If you can already sew, I have a range of patterns to choose from to suit all of your needs. There are sewing patterns to make bags, purses, storage baskets and  so much more.

I have also designed an adorable range of sewing patterns to make Theodore Bear and Friends, a charming group of felt animals with the finest wardrobe of clothes.
