About the Instructor
OLIVIA ISSA
A Chicago native, I'm a college student, dancer, and self-taught sewist. I started Issa Fit with the intention of making learning to sew as enjoyable and accessible as possible. I'm a strong believer in the idea that creating your own wordrobe means a lot more than just some nice clothes; sewing what you wear is about cultivating your individual style, building confidence in your look and abilities, and reducing the waste that fast fashion produces. I have loved every moment of my twelve-year sewing journey so far, which is why I'm so excited to share it with you! Feel free to reach me with any questions at oissafit@gmail.com.
