The teacher

Having served as a head seamstress at André Courrèges, I was trained to adhere to a rigorous standard of quality in my work. Upon entering retirement, my passion for needlework led me to join the Quilts de Légende association. I am proud to have several works to my credit that have been distinguished as "Quilts de Brouage." For over a decade, I have enjoyed leading the patchwork club in Hagetmau, in the Landes region. In 2022, I had the opportunity to join the Quilts en Rêve group, whose works were exhibited in Sainte-Croix-aux-Mines.
