I'm Becky. I've been sewing for as long as I can remember and teaching others to sew for over a decade. I'm happiest when I'm making things, and I'm grateful to be able to share my love of sewing and textiles with others.

Through gather + make, I offered sewing classes in Guelph (and beyond) and a curated collection of high quality new and circular fabric. Although I'm currently taking a hiatus from classes, I am continuing this work through the Guelph Tool Library's Stitch Together Community Mending Project and Repair Cafe initiative, and am an active and vocal advocate for mending, repair, and the circular textile economy in Guelph.

So whether you're brand new to sewing or it's already your favourite thing to do, you can join the community by signing up for my newsletter to stay in the loop about future classes and local sewing and mending events (like fabric swaps & sewing meet-ups!) and follow me on IG @gather.and.make to stay connected!
