Hi I'm Jo Westfoot, the owner of The Crafty Nomad.  I love to sew and quilt and generally 'make stuff'!  On my website you will find free tutorials, patterns for sale and my blog which catalogues my sewing and crafting journey!

Some 'how to' tutorials are written specifically aimed at sewing beginners.  Others are more advanced.  I LOVE modern quilting, so you will find lots on here about that too!

I've spent the last three and a half years (Jan 2014-July 2017) teaching sewing classes locally.  From July 2017 I'm moving away from teaching to focus on quilting and patterns.  More detail on that here.
