Brown, Sarah

Sarah Brown has a BFA in Fashion Design from Virginia Commonwealth University. She moved to NYC for a design job, where she realized Richmond had her heart. She moved back to Richmond and is a Teacher Assistant at VCU in the fashion design department. She loves creating, working with all walks of life, and making mistakes along the way to form something beautiful. She loves being able to teach someone how to use a sewing machine, because it is the basis of where one can grow. Along with sewing, she adores flat patternmaking and all the math it entails. If you ever want to make an impression on her, bring up cats and she will tell you all about her cat family. Instagram: @freckled_sewist
