Sandra Bengtson is the owner of Avant Garb Fashions. She created her business, in part, because she believes that knowing how to sew is an important life skill that, if nourished, becomes a hobby, craft, and a great way to express creativity. Sandra loves the ability to create and share with others the one-of-a-kind, handmade items that reflect ones personal style. After working almost 30 years in Community Education, she now offers beginner and advanced-beginner sewing classes that provide a warm, inclusive classroom environment with fun, laughter, and perhaps even new friendships.
