The Sewing Lounge opens in April 2009. Jessica Dooley's goal is to empower people with the knowledge of sewing. She is deeply passionate about teaching sewing and watching peoples' creativity grow.
Jessica has had an interest in fabric and sewing since she was a small child. Her amazing grandma (aka Ma) gave her a vintage Singer Genie sewing machine when she was in Middle School. From that first bag that she made with her Ma at the kitchen island Jessica has been hooked on sewing and all things crafty. She later took private lessons to expand her knowledge and skills. One day while looking at sewing books with her mom in a local bookstore Jessica commented that she should just open up her own sewing lounge. From that day the idea grew from a fun idea to a passion that had to be fulfilled, and the rest is history. Jessica is an alumni of the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.
The Sewing Lounge is part boutique, part sewing lounge, and a lovely little creative space on the blossoming Magnolia Boulevard in Burbank. It's a perfect find for those who'd like to learn more about the art and craft of sewing.
You can sign up for private or semi-private classes at The Sewing Lounge. They'll also let you reserve their shop Lounge for your own customizable sewing parties!
As an added bonus, Jessica is committed to supporting the Handmade Crafts community! Making The Sewing Lounge a great place to shop for uniquely handcrafted items from local artists like me (www.honeychilddesigns.etsy.com).
A special collection of Honey Child Designs jewelry, featuring earrings, bracelets and rings, are on sale now at The Sewing Lounge!
The Sewing Lounge also features an ongoing collection of Jessica's own brand of handmade and embellished vintage goods, as well as, those of local artisans.
On April 18th, Jessica hosted her Grand Opening event at The Sewing Lounge. It was a blast!
Sewing classes are now in session!
