Background

This week on “Stitch Please”, We get you prepared to buy your first sewing machine. Lisa gives you the pitfalls that you should avoid, when looking for a machine, that will keep you from making some of the same mistakes that other new sewers might have made. We also get a chance to hear from other fellow sewers who give you great advice when you are in the market to make such a big investment. Buying your first sewing machine can be frustrating, but let Lisa and friends help you find the machine that will fit you like a glove. So settle in as we help you get your stitch together!

She is also the host/producer of Stitch Please, a weekly audio podcast that centers on Black women, girls, and femmes in sewing.
