Meet the instructor!
Abby came to us through a high school work program in 2014, and we welcomed her back full time in 2017. She's a jack of all trades, having moved through departments, finding a home as our shop manager as well as coordinating Sue's Ohio classes. Over the past few years, Abby's embroidery skills have flourished through making shop samples, teaching beginner embroidery classes, and even designing her own pincushion kit! She enjoys working face to face with customers and students, and has a great eye for color and design.
