Hi, I’m Joe! I started working in the sewing machine industry in 2007 as a technician in training. I attended certification courses for Husqvarna Viking, Bernina, Baby Lock and more. Between fixing machines, I also enjoyed selling and teaching. I started Sew with Joe in 2019, and I’ve spent the past 5 years making embroidery designs and tutorials from home. I missed the sewing store atmosphere and sense of community. Sew, I decided to open my own store here in Monument, Colorado! The Sew with Joe online community, videos, support, projects and subscriptions will not go away. I look forward to improving my online content, and serving the local and online communities better than ever before.
Congratulation's to Lynda on pulling the winning ticket for our end of year drawing! As the new owner of an Anthem, we can not wait to see the fun things she creates!
