As you drive along State Street in South St. Joseph, you may have noticed a small former bank branch with an attractive stylish sign that says ‘Angela Wolf’. However, you probably haven’t realized that it is the headquarters of a nationally prominent fashion designer and host of a rapidly growing ‘Do it Yourself’ series of programs on ‘connected TV.’ (YouTube, Roku, FireTV, etc.)
Meet Angela Wolf!
This week marks the premiere of Angela Wolf’s ‘Fabric to Fashion’ on ‘Made It Myself TV’, a highly popular channel for crafters of many varieties all across the country.
Producers of the TV series summarize it this way:
Angela is the producer and founder of Fabric to Fashion — a fashion design challenge reality show premiering on Made it Myself TV. Each challenge includes three to four designers. The designers are all given the same challenge, which may include anything from a specific fabric to worn garments for refashioning. Along with the challenge, the designers are also given a surprise fashion element that they need to incorporate into their garment.
The entire show is filmed virtually, allowing the viewer to see each designer / sewist working in their own studios following along from concept to finished garment. The designers come from a wide range of skill levels, along with their own unique stories as to how they have come to love sewing. Fabric to Fashion offers entertainment, along with an educational aspect.
In addition to her role as the host of Fabric to Fashion, Angela Wolf is also the host of the popular PBS series It’s Sew Easy. She produces and hosts weekly live shows, ‘Behind the Scenes’ on Facebook and YouTube, as well as ‘At Your Side Virtually!’ for Brother, featured on Brother Sews Facebook and YouTube channels.
Angela’s passion for sewing extends beyond television. She is the founder of Angela Wolf Patterns and Angela Wolf Academy, where she offers online classes to over 650,000 students. Angela is also an accomplished author, blogger, vlogger, and contributor to various sewing magazines. Most of it from right here in St. Joseph in her offices and studios on South State Street.
Angela is the Author of How to Start a Home-based Fashion Design Business, and has been been featured in Threads Magazine, Sew Stylish, Sew News, and Schmetz magazines.
Angela was awarded the American Sewing Expo’s teacher of year in 2012 and in 2016 Industry Contributor of the year. When Angela is not working in the sewing world, you will find her professionally sportfishing out of the port of St. joseph on the ‘Win–n–Angel’ with her husband, Winn.
