| Instructor: | Capi Saxton |
| Instructor Bio: | Capi is the Chief Fiber Officer at Always In Stitches. You may not see her much in the front of the shop, but she is usually working somewhere in the background. She oversees all operations of the shop and when time permits, teaches classes and makes samples. Her quilting career started in 2007, when her best friend Lyneen decided to open the shop. Their plan was to just hang out in the shop occasionally. Little did they know that “occasional” would not apply to what the shop has become. It's been a wonderful adventure for them both and they are still best friends. Making bags and challenging quilts are Capi’s favorite. She also loves making quilts for her family and friends. She says, “seeing their joy in receiving something handmade makes me smile.” Her most memorable project is the 5 quilts she made for her dad and his brothers using the same pattern with different fabrics they each selected to make them unique. In her spare time, she loves traveling, gardening, sewing, and reading. Capi enjoys teaching and believes everyone is a beginner at some time. She encourages her students to allow themselves to make mistakes and allow others the same grace. “This is a fun industry to work, play and share with others. I’m blessed to be a small part.” |
