Gail Kelley:
Gail, owner of The Sewing Hive from 2019-2023, is dedicated to proper fit techniques. She teaches Master Pattern and Bust Adjust Classes, plus many other clothing classes and series workshops. 

When she was young, her mom made clothing for the family and taught them the importance of well-made clothing. 
As a teen, Gail began making some of her own clothing to express her individual sense of style. In the Summer, she spent time with and learned from her aunt, a seamstress in the NYC Garment District. 
Gail realized she was dissatisfied with how commercial patterns fit and wasn't the only one who felt that way. Her desire to create the right fit for herself and others brought another leg of her sewing journey: tailoring, draping classes, and teaching herself new skills. Gail took surface design and fine arts classes at CCAD to graduate with a degree in Fine Arts.
