Welcome! I enjoy bag-making, quilting, appliqué, garment sewing, FPP and painting. I'm blessed to pursue my hobbies full-time; at this point in my life. My items are handmade, by me, in my smoke-free in my Laguna, CA art studio. I'm a Chicago native, where I learned to sew clothing from my grandmother, Stella, who was seamstress in Poland & Chicago. She taught my Mom, Lillian, to sew and my Mom taught me garment and home-craft sewing at a young age. I like to believe a little their love is weaved into every stitch of everything I make. Continuing education is important to me! I'm always taking art & sewing classes to learn new techniques so I can improve my craft.
I'm a member of my local quilting "Guild" and participate in sewing bee's and friendship groups. I love making handmade gifts for friends and family. I also sew with a "Philanthropy" team which serves locals in need in our community. We donate handmade items to women's shelters, disaster areas, underprivileged kids in camps, chemo blankets, military veterans and local families in need, etc. It's my blessing to make and donate handmade lap/baby quilts, NICU blankets and pillowcases to this cause. I've learned so much from the women in these groups and made lovely friends! This Philanthropy work is very important & rewarding to me!
It's truly my joy and "therapy" to create in my studio. I will continually create & list new products to offer you. Thank you!
Peace, Karen @SewFitzy
