ASGLA member: Marijane Johnson
Hi my name is Marijane Johnson & I love to sew. I started at 7 yrs old making toddler outfits for my 1 & 2 year old sisters, and by high school I was earning money making cocktail dresses for my neighbor.
For almost 10 years I made competition swim suits for female athletes mostly synchro swimmers but also gymnasts, & women bodybuilders. Then I learned bra making! I love the bra making experience & have been teaching bra making & swimsuit construction for over 12 yrs.
During Covid I had my first grandchild & made a quilt & caught the quilting bug so now I’m a quilter! I love teaching others new skills & expanding their sewing knowledge, there is always something new to learn!
Turn your quilt fabric stash into a holiday gift stash!
Marijane created a series of quick & easy classes to sew holiday gifts and be ready for the gift giving season. All of these items make great handmade gifts and will impress friends and family.
All classes held at Upland Sew & Vac and only basic sewing skills are necessary
