About

Hi! My name is Anne del Rosario and I'm your sewing teacher at Sew Easy For Kids. I've been married for 20 years and have 3 boys and a lovable labrador. We live in Parañaque City, Philippines. I am a Christian and follower of Jesus Christ, and my family serves in our local church.



I finished my bachelor's degree from the U.P. College of Fine Arts in Diliman and worked as a writer and art director in an advertising agency. A few years later, my husband and I put up our own design company. I have been working as a graphic designer for more than 20 years now.



Doing crafts and making things with my hands have always been my favorite things to do as a kid. It was my Mom who taught me how to sew by hand and she showed me different stitches for fixing a hem or a tear, and darning holes in my shirts. I realized that kids today do not know how to sew, and it's sad to know that hardly anyone is teaching this valuable skill anymore. I guess mothers now are too busy or don't have the patience to teach it, and the schools have turned to more computer oriented subjects. That's why I decided to study more about sewing with the use of a sewing machine. I learned how to make my own clothes and handmade crafts and accessories to give away as gifts to friends.



My love for sewing has grown into a desire to share and teach this lifeskill to others, especially kids. I started with teaching basic hand sewing and decided to take it further into sewing things that you can wear, but this time with the use of a sewing machine. After a lot of research and practice, I picked everything up and prepared to teach my first students.... my boys! Soon enough, I was able to find a nice space for a sewing studio and set the business up and running. On April 4, 2013, I taught my first ever sewing class and we had a blast!



I hope you are as excited as I am to get into sewing. Join me in this journey of bringing back this "old but new" lifeskill and teaching it to our kids. YOU, too,​ can learn how to sew even if you haven't touched a sewing machine in your life, or if you're an old-timer and just want to start again. I don't care how old you are, let's just do it!



Let's get sewing!
