Experienced tutor in Painting in Portland, Katy offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

My girls (age 8,12,14) had a wonderful time working in the studio. They experienced both the joy and creativity exuded in the Katy's teaching. Each of my daughters came away having increased their sewing skills 10 fold. My youngest did 2 of the classes and was thrilled with her animal, leggings, scrunchies, masks, and more. She came in with almost no sewing skills. Not only did she enjoy the time, but she was able to take what she learned and start sewing some of her own at home. My older 2 were a little jealous and wanted to do something of their own. Even though they are significantly older, they had just as much fun as their little sister. Since taking the 3 hour class, they have started sewing on their own like crazy! I am absolutely thrilled with all that they learned and what a fun time they had. They are all begging to go back for more!!!

Katy is great! She is patient, fun and helps support and fuel my daughter’s creative interests.

We loved sewing with Katy. She was very patient and able to work with beginning sewers. The projects were creative and my girls loved them. Katy's enthusiasm has seeded a passion for sewing now.
