A Note from Our Founder
Welcome to Pioneer Sewing,
As the founder of this passionate endeavor, I am deeply inspired by the rich legacy of sewing and the profound impact it can have on individuals and communities. My journey began in the vibrant island of Dominica, where I grew up in a family of master tailors and seamstresses. This craft has not only been a profession but a way of life that has taught me the values of creativity, precision, and empowerment.
Pioneer Sewing is a manifestation of my dream to revive the art of sewing in America, to empower people with the skills they need for self-employment, and to contribute to a sustainable fashion future. It is an honor to share this journey with you, to teach, to learn, and to grow together in a community bound by threads of creativity and purpose.
Thank you for being a part of our story. Let's sew the seeds of change, one stitch at a time.
Warm regards,
Ian Moreau
Founder, Pioneer Sewing
