Judi Harris, fashion and costume designer, quilter, crafter, and teacher, discovered her love for the art of sewing at the age of six, when she would take scrap fabric left from dresses her mother made and construct clothing for her dolls. This passion has inspired her entrepreneurial career: she has spent years selling her creations at craft/art fairs, developed and hosts the instructional, interactive, 800 page website www.lovetosew.com, and founded a sewing school for children, home to over one hundred students. She hopes to inspire young girls by showing that sewing can actually be an art and a pleasure, a mode of self expression and creativity, even, perhaps, a potential career. Her work has been published in Sew News, MOMS, Crafts & Things, and Sew Simple magazines.
