Meet Leslie

Hi, I'm Leslie!

I'm an educator, lifelong learner, and creative at heart. After 20 years of teaching, one thing I know for sure is that learning something new should feel encouraging, enjoyable, and rewarding.

I've always loved making things with my hands, exploring new creative skills, and experiencing the satisfaction that comes from turning an idea into something you can be proud of. Sewing, quilting, baking, gardening, painting and crafting are favorite creative outlets, but I believe creativity can take many forms—and there's always something new to learn and make.

I created Leslie Ann Studios as a place where people can come together to learn new skills, create beautiful projects, and enjoy the creative process.

My classes are hands-on, welcoming, and intentionally small so I can provide individual attention and support. Whether you're trying something for the first time, returning to a hobby you once enjoyed, or simply looking for an opportunity to spend time creating, you'll find a relaxed environment where you can learn at your own pace, ask questions, and enjoy making something with your own hands.

One of my favorite parts of teaching is seeing that moment when someone realizes, “I can do this!” My goal is for you to leave each class with new skills, something you've created, and the confidence and inspiration to keep learning.

I hope you'll join me at Leslie Ann Studios.

Come learn something new, make something beautiful, and enjoy the creative process!
