Meet Emily Magli
I have been sewing for over thirty years and have made every mistake in constructing a garment. However, a friend once said to me that failure is knowledge. I finally enjoyed success when I went back to the basics – learning to sew by hand. Practicing traditional techniques elevated my sewing and helped me create more beautiful and lasting garments. I am dedicated to teaching haute couture techniques and helping people achieve the best fitting and constructed garment.
