Is there a better thing than doing what you love? Since stitching and 3-dimensional hand-finishing became Lody's passions, she continued to read and do research about teaching needleworks. For she dreams of being surrounded by students who wants to learn what she gained... that dream is becoming a reality. 

Aside from developing her own technique and inventing new 3D finishes, Lody also attends classes on her spare time. Currently, she is enrolled on Counted Thread Embroidery Master Craftsman Program of the Embroiderers' Guild of America (EGA).

If you own a needlework shop in central Iowa or nearby area, Lody would love to teach her expertise to your customers. She is now working on a 1-day, 2-days workshops and 3-days workshops, which all involves 3D hand-finishing.
