Tracy McElfresh
Hi, I’m Tracy and this is my sewing blog. My favorite things to create and sell are time period dresses, dress replicas and swimwear. My primary job is alterations, mending, and fit – although I also teach group sewing classes, serve on the Kettering Arts Council, make sewing tips videos on YouTube and facilitate The Dayton Garment Designers Meet Up Group. These are just a few of our members which I also now call friends! If your like to be crafty also please look for us in Facebook groups.
Almost forgot, I design awesome fabric you can buy through Spoonflower.
Thank you to all that took the time to submit to this weeks story and thank you for reading,

Dream it! Sew it!
