About

Hello!  My name is Stephanie and I'm a horticulturist who enjoys sewing just about anything.  Since I'm under 5'2", sewing petite clothing is my specialty and my passion.  I think that you can look great no matter your size or shape, you just need the tips and tools to succeed.  I love finding great deals, altering clothing and making crafts.  I'm married to a wonderful, easy-going guy named Scott.  I love hiking, I eat my burritos from the bottom up, I'm a plant nerd, I live in Colorado and I'm a Mormon.  I started this blog in September 2011 while still healing from shoulder and knee injuries.

On my blog, I'll share my sewing-related projects, tips and tutorials, petite advice, as well as a little crafting for the home.  I love sharing what I do and what I know that can help others.  I appreciate your comments and questions. If you would like to contact me by email, my address is thepetitesewist (at) gmail (dot) com. Thanks for stopping by!
