Welcome, I am Claire Shaeffer.
I write sewing books and collect vintage fashions. I graduated with honors from a trade-technical school where I learned to make garments at all price points. Later, I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in art history.
I've written hundreds of articles and more than 25 books and videos on garment construction. I, also, design the Custom Couture Collection for Vogue Patterns. I taught college level courses for 22 years. I received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Association of Sewing and Design Professionals in 2003 and the American Sewing Guild Hall of Fame Award in 2012.
I have an extensive collection of vintage fashions which I use for research.
My YouTube videos focus on museum exhibitions, sewing techniques, and what you can learn and apply from vintage designs.
