Marissa Alain
As a skilled sewer, my journey began with a passion for crafting and designing at a young age. I pursued a diploma with Olds college and graduated from there Costume Cutting and Construction program. I've honed my skills in precise pattern making, meticulous garment construction, and a keen eye for fabric selection.
I was born and raised in Calgary, AB and continued in the industry after graduation, then relocated to Fernie BC 2.5 years ago and have never looked back! Driven by a profound passion for sewing and textile art, I've found immense joy and fulfillment in sharing this craft with others. I am dedicated to imparting not just technical skills but also a deep appreciation for the creativity embedded in every stitch. I aim to empower students with the confidence to explore their unique sewing style and encourage them to express themselves creatively.
