About Gretchen
I'm a licensed Kids Can Sew instructor giving lessons for four years. Small classes of four. Teaching basic sewing to people 8 years old and older. Sewing is a life skill that you can look to throughout your life. Once you know the basics you can do mending, create home decor to match your style, make clothes that fit you perfectly and make gifts for others.
I started sewing as a child making Barbie clothes and took a few classes when they were offered. In high school I really caught the bug and under the direction of a great teacher I learned more and more about clothing construction. Throughout my 20s I made a lot of my career wardrobe; however with the birth of two children and a full-time career in Museum Management I no longer had the time to sew.
In 2013 I had to retire to care for my 24-year-old son. Homebound for the first time in my life, I reached out to the kids nextdoor and taught them how to sew over the summer. That Fall I started Kreative Thread Studio.
Now in business five years, I have taught more than 60 children and adults the joy of sewing. Throughout the year many of my students come together to sew for charity--gifts we make to donate to Mercy Kids at Christmas.
I'd love to show you how sewing can be a fun and enjoyable hobby, as well as a practical skill.

The creative part of sewing is the most rewarding part. With a few basic skills I can design and create just about anything I wish. Choosing fabrics, buying patterns, creating my own patterns and the entire process of putting everything together is wonderful way to feel accomplished.

Gretchen is patient working with my granddaughter. She has taught her many sewing techniques while completing some beautiful sewing projects including a dress, body pillow with appliqué, stuffed animals, beach tote bag, and American Girl doll clothes
Gretchen is very helpful, and always a delight to work with!
My daughter took sewing lessons from Gretchen a few years ago and has continued to go back to her sewing summer camps. Gretchen is so patient working with kids and it shows that she enjoys teaching!
Gretchen is so patient and upbeat. Always positive encouragement and knows her stuff! She does lovely work and helps others do the same. Absolutely recommend her.
Gretchen works individually with our son, a teenager, who wants to go into fashion design. He has learned an enormous amount in just a few classes with her. She is able to tailor the lessons to his interest, level and needs and on top of that, relate very well to him. I would highly recommend Gretchen for any classes.
Miss Gretchen is the best instructor for teaching kids how to sew. My daughters (ages ranging 7-14) have attended multiple classes from her and they all had the best time & learned what I couldn’t teach them! Highly recommend!!!
There is no one more patient and creative than Gretchen! She makes sewing easy and fun - for both the young and old. My nieces and I have taken sewing lessons from her and we loved every minute. I highly recommend Kreative Thread!
