About Sweet Afton

Welcome to Sweet Afton Sewing. I am a native Minnesota gal who currently resides in Minneapolis, MN with my husband new puppy, Hoss!  I grew up in the beautiful and quiet city of Afton, MN--where inspiration is around every corner and beauty can be found in just about anything.  So, while I love living in the city, I am a country girl at heart.  


I am also a 5th grade teacher and have been in education the past 8 years. Teacher by day and inspired sewer by night!  I can't hold back my love of new projects, unique antique shop finds, and the excitement and energy of teaching and collaborating with others who share the same passions. 


Feel free to share your comments and excitement about anything you see. That is part of the fun of sewing :) 



Thank you for visiting!
