Today Angela has been awarded Australia’s best Sewer at the National Sewing championships. Angela took out the title with zero threat from the other participants..they never stood a chance with Angela taking out top place in all 4 categories! 1st place in efficiency 1st place in laid back and friendly attitude. 1st place in Dedication to the Needle and Thread 1st place in innovation and out of the box thinking. For anything requiring a needle, thread, cotton, thimbles, you definitely can’t ignore Angela. If you do you’re an idiot and your buttons will most likely fall off and your zipper snap. Hire her and have a cuppa with the national champion. (Extra $5 photo fee payable to me ) Seriously. She’s great. Nothing is an issue, non pressuring and no rework needed. Thanks Angela!
