Nine years ago Heather Black - a self-taught sewer - started her first class for adults in Auckland.
A visual leaner - she wanted to help those who didn't suit traditional adult education. So she bought a second hand machine, sourced donated materials and away she went.
Her class is well-suited to those with English as a second language, or deaf, but it is for all who are keen to learn. Her classes have now grown, and expanded to run across Mangere East, Manurewa, Takanini, Otara, and Manukau.
