Hi, My name is Tammy Miller,
I am CEO of my own company with my Dad-
TNT Thread Designs/dynamitesewingideas and designs, and Wood by James,
and a volunteer in my community.
My Business teaches, designs patterns and manufactures specialty products.
I have sewn for Lear Jet and Elvis (but of course you know he is dead).
I have been sewing since I was 5 years old. My Mom and my Grandmother
along
with 4-H taught me how to sew.
In Grade school
I Won the Make it yourself with Wool contest for the county.
In High school, my little
brother won 1st place competitive placing amongst
all the county sewers, including
my sister and myself. He made
a pair of pants with a zipper, pockets and jean seams.
This is when I
became competitive, along with my awsome sister, who has made me learn faster than anyone I know, or else be left
behind.
To Start College At 19, I won
a scholarship from sewing thru the 4-H program to college for $400. That was a lot of money at that time.
After College-
I started sewing for the elderly and other
sewers in the area who didn't
have time to finish their projects.
Also, College projects such as bras, Weddings, and pattern grading.
A Couple of shops asked me to sew for
them.
I even had an outfit stolen from one shop, and I was actually flattered.
From this, I learned how to really sew, I learned to complete a project,
good or bad and sometimes beautiful.
Lately I learned I could sew even if I could not walk and was
wheelchair bound. Sewing is great for transferring my pain.
My New ventures and explorations include awesome Embroidery.
Today I am able to walk and YES still sewing!!! Always!!
