About the Teacher
Why study with them?
DESIGNER, PATTERNMAKER & INSTRUCTOR
I'm Jo - the founder of Cedar and Vine. Where to start...this brand has taken me on such a crazy, wonderful journey - it's ever evolving and hard to summarize it up.
Each day in the studio looks slightly different for me and differs on the time of year. My main tasks include planning upcoming projects, shows, and collections, pattern drafting, grading, customizing made-to-order patterns, and doing all the day-to-day tasks that come with running a business.
I truly feel so blessed to be surrounded by the most lovely team and to have our entire production take place under one roof; where I can ensure that the entire process aligns with my personal values...and connect with likeminded people everyday. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting our brand.
One of my favourite parts of my job is sharing our love of sewing, pattern making, and knowledge from years of production experience by teaching others our craft. It is SO rewarding to watch people make garments from scratch that they will actually wear. As a creator, nothing makes me happier than to share the experience of fulfilment that comes through creating your own garments. Read More
