Hipstitch Academy Creator
Megan Avery

Hi, I'm Megan & I'm the human behind Hipstitch Academy. I’ve been teaching and encouraging people to make their own clothing for over 20 years.

My creative vision is to help people embrace alternatives to fast fashion by teaching people to sew, encourage thrifting, mending & altering clothes, as well as provide alternative fashions & goodies made from items that already exist in the world.

Hipstitch Academy is an in-person & online sewing studio. This means you can take our sewing classes from anywhere in the world.

Our In-Person Sewing Classes & Retreats are taught at our Catskills Sewing Studio located in the Catskills of New York State.

Our live instruction Online Sewing Classes and Lessons for Kids & Adults are taught by real people using live video instruction on zoom. 

If you have any questions or need help, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

xo, Megan
