My guest today is Ryliss Bod, owner and founder of the Sewing and Design School in Tacoma, Washington. Ryliss considers herself one of the luckiest people in the world. She was raised in a family where learning new skills—no matter your age—was valued and encouraged. She channeled her love of sewing into a career as part of the faculty of Bates Technical College. In 2012, she opened the Sewing and Design School and has inspired students to advance their skills through a variety of classes for all skill levels. In addition to the ongoing slate of classes, Ryliss also brings in instructors such as Kenneth D. King for special workshops throughout the year on pattern drafting and moulage making. I’ve taken a class from Ryliss and am registered for two more this fall. Come along and listen as I visit with Ryliss!
