Hi, I'm Alcora — founder of Make It & Take It and your sewing
instructor/mentor.
I’ve been sewing since I was about two and a half years old, and
sewing has been part of my life ever since. Creativity runs in our family and have more than 30 years of experience in the fashion industry, I’ve worked as a:
• Fashion Designer
• Pattern Maker
• Specialist Buyer
• Strategic Project Manager
Today I specialise in teaching beginner sewing classes in Centurion, helping women gain the confidence to sew independently at home.
My professional background means students learn proper sewing techniques simplified for beginners.
