Enriching lives, one stitch at a time

Hello, I'm Megan

Almost three decades ago, I picked up my first needle and thread, sparking a lifelong passion for sewing that grew from a personal hobby to a shared experience. In 2022, I took a bold step and launched Sew & Tell Australia, channeling years of accumulated knowledge and enthusiasm into a platform that helps sewists globally.

Since launching, I’ve hosted multiple live events and sewing classes, connecting with thousands of creative minds across the world. 

Through Sew & Tell Australia I help you feel more confidence, more creativity, bring you community and help you complete more projects easily and with fun!

Inside the Masterclass, you’ll discover:

✅ The truth behind terms like Lycra, spandex, elastane (yes, they all mean the same thing, but there’s a catch)
✅ How to read fabric descriptions, even when the shop doesn’t give you much to go on
✅ Why you might want to pre-wash rayon more than once before sewing
✅ How to avoid wasting money on poor quality fabric that won’t last
✅ What you should always check before clicking “Add to Cart”
