Jane Skoch

Jane Skoch has been creating with her hands since she was a young girl. Her academic studies led her to an M.S. degree in Chemical Engineering. The pursuit of that career was put on hold with the birth of her first child and the gift of her first sewing machine. On that machine, she has stitched hundreds of miles, producing clothes and accessories for herself, kids, friends and family. Being practical, she likes to upcycle T Shirts, sweatshirts, coffee bags and other items into new designs. She has sewn many T Shirt quilts over the years and developed and wrote an easy-to-follow pattern to create a T Shirt Memory Blanket. She blogs about her creative life and has developed straightforward tutorials to solve simple problems or create practical items. In addition to sewing, she also enjoys knitting. Her non-creative pursuits include listening to music, reading, biking and searching for sea glass on the shores of Lake Erie.
