About Me

Hi Friends! I’m Kara, a data and sewing enthusiast with a hard-to-fit body (like so many of us, right?). I have 25 years of sewing “aha!” moments behind me, and many more ahead!

As a professional data geek with a background in electronic textiles research, I like techniques that I can understand and prove to work. I’m always experimenting and analyzing my sewing, and never get tired of talking about it, so feel free to reach out any time with ideas, questions, comments, or your own insights!

Although I love the math, I also try to create calculators and tools along the way—it saves both time and human error. And for anyone who doesn’t love doing math but still likes understanding why different techniques work and having a systematic starting point for sewing decisions, these tools are for you!

Join me on my quest to make garments that make us feel good—on the first try.
