Catherine Scholar discovered the joy of costuming at age five after reading Little House on the Prairie. She learned to sew at her mother’s knee and to embroider at her grandmother’s, skills that grew into the passion for historic costuming that she has pursued for thirty years. Catherine has taught numerous costuming workshops for the Greater Bay Area Costumers Guild (GBACG) and Costume College, and served on the board of the Greater Bay Area Costumers Guild (GBACG) for a decade as Newsletter Editor, Events Coordinator, and President.
