BERNINA of America, Aurora, Ill., recently added three new experts to its “WeAllSew” blog: Laura Pifer, Angel Hickman Peterson and Minki Kim.
The experts will supply project ideas, patters, tips and techniques to fuel creativity and enhance a love for sewing, according to the company. Pifer is a designer, seamstress and the blogger behind Trash to Couture, a DIY fashion blog she started in 2010 to inspire a less-wasteful approach to mass-produced fashion by mainstreaming DIY tutorials.
Peterson started a sewing, craft and DIY blog called Fleece Fun in 2011. She also has an online video-training blog called DIYVideoforBloggers.com.
Originally from Korea, Kim is a formally trained artist and self-taught sewist who expresses herself on websites and blogs, and in books. Her pattern shop is online at MinkiKim.com, and she has a recently published book, “Sew Illustrated.” — J.L.
