ABOUT US
We are here to close the generational gap in teaching sewing and fiber arts skills. In our quaint, creative studio located in Independence and serving Northeast Ohio, we preserve and pass on essential life skills through hands-on education and creative exploration.
The Indy Sewing Studio is thoughtfully designed for **Super Beginners** as well as experienced sewists eager to expand their skills or explore sewing as a creative outlet. Our versatile space features fully equipped workstations with materials and notions, sewing machines, sergers, quilting and embroidery machines, along with open workstations for those who prefer to bring their own machines.
Serving both children and adults, The Indy Sewing Studio is an educational space rooted in patience, creativity, and community. We strive to be the cornerstone of your sewing and fiber arts journey—bringing together the tools, resources, and instruction you need to create seamlessly (no pun intended 😉).
the woman behind the studio
Dana Rowan is a true free spirited connector. She caught the sewing bug six years ago and is a 4th generation sewist. Before sewing, she crocheted and loved making gifts and party decor with paper. After being an ICU Nurse for thirteen years, she took her sewing talent to the next level and opened an Etsy shop. While being a Mom of two little ones she also sold at local Cleveland Markets. Connecting with the vibrant creative community is a big part of where she is today starting the Indy Sewing Studio.
She LOVED her time working at Pins & Needles Sewing Superstore. The knowledge she gained working and making in the sewing industry gave her the foundation to bring her big dreams to fruition. Dana's creative vision always aims to bring people together for learning, playing and enjoying a healthy escape from life's to-dos. Those who have been touched by Dana’s world know her unwavering belief in self-growth and being authentically linked to one’s inner spirit. At every moment you will likely hear her say... "Let's Create!"
