She has a B.S. in biology from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Ph.D. in plant physiology from Virginia Tech and was a postdoctoral fellow at Cornell University. She is a self-taught seamstress who has been experimenting with fabric for more than 30 years. The Scientific Seamstress blog and pattern series are well known for their complete, easy-to-follow instructions and detailed illustrations.
