Hi, my name is Yoan. I am the creator of yoansewingstudio.
This blog and my Youtube channel were originally started out of extreme boredom and feeling of isolation during postpartum.
After receiving many positive and constructive feedback, I decided to post regularly on Youtube, and would typically upload 1-3 videos a month.

HOW I LEARN TO SEW
I learnt to sew when I was a little girl from a lady neighbor who was a seamstress and was kind enough to teach me basic hand stitching techniques, also gave away a bag of fabric scraps that I used to make some barbie doll clothes. Since then I've always loved fabrics, needle, and thread.
I rekindled my interest in sewing again about 9 years ago simply to help me relax after a hectic day at work. I bought my first basic sewing machine, and got hooked with it indeed.

A little bit about me, I was born and raised in Indonesia. In my early 20's I left my home country, and started a life abroad.
I spent 7 years living and working in Dubai, UAE, then moved to the US in summer of 2015, and have been living here since.
Beside sewing and making videos, I also enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and reading.
I currently reside in Northern Arizona with my husband, our 5 year old son, and Australian cattle dog mix.
