One-hour sessions in Megan’s studio
Private instruction for one student. Lessons for two may be arranged by request.
What you can learn
Get comfortable with your machine, practice sewing skills, or work on pattern reading and garment construction. Bring a project idea, or find a starting point with Megan.
Your sewing machine
Bring yours so you can learn on the machine you’ll use at home. Let Megan know if you don’t have one.
Machine embroidery instruction is available by request.
Meet Megan. Your sewing teacher.
Hi, I’m Megan! Creativity and sewing have always been part of my life. I started Megan’s Sewing Box in 2015 to share the joy of making something yourself.
My background is in early childhood special education, and I’ve been teaching private sewing lessons for more than ten years. I love helping people learn, whether they’re sitting at a sewing machine for the first time or returning after years away.

How I teach
I start with you: what you already know, what feels challenging, and what you’d love to make. We break new skills into manageable steps, with time to practice, ask questions, and try again.
I’ll demonstrate when you need it, then put the sewing back in your hands. My goal is to help you understand your machine, make decisions, and build the confidence to keep creating on your own.
Bring a project idea, or we can find a starting point together. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you begin.
Kind words from students
“Megan had a lot of patience with an oldie like me. I hadn't sewn in 38 years. Great for beginners and those needing a refresher. Can't wait to take more lessons!”
— Tosh
“[Megan] is extremely patient, knowledgeable and down to earth. I appreciate that she always asked if I had projects that I wanted to work on.”
— Liz
