Johonna's web page
I started sewing when I was about 11 years old.  After taking many breaks I have found that I love the creative process so much I do it most of my spare time.  My passion for historical costuming comes from my involvement in the SCA and from the desire to know more about my ancestors.

I am currently taking an on-line
History of Fashion and Dress class and will be posting my assignments to this page.
