Instructor: Christine Sieger
Instructor Bio: Christine (she/her) has been creating for as long as she can remember. As a kid, she finished her mom’s crewel projects, sewed doll clothes on a temperamental White sewing machine, crocheted a sweater for her dog, and counted many cross stitches. As an adult, she quilts (both machine and EPP), makes clothes because she has too many quilts, weaves and knits. She continues to work on improving her skills and is always open to learning new ones. In her non-sewing life, Christine is a public servant, a mom to 3 kids and a rescue dog from Texas, and a wife. She loves road trips to national parks with a needle and thread.
