Moment
If you and your brain seem at odds with each other, does this sound familiar?
- Your sewing space is so cluttered and disorganized that you can’t find anything
- You have at least a half dozen half finished projects
- You hyperfocus so deep on an unrelated but very interesting topic or project, that you forget to do the one thing you were supposed to do in the first place
- You constantly fail to complete projects on time
- You’ve lost your sewing motivation because of frustrations over perfectionism
Oh, you’re in just the right spot, friend!
That’s where I come in. Auntie Althea, your sewing cheerleader.

Hi, I’m Althea Rizzo. Dr. Althea Rizzo if you want to be all formal. I earned my doctorate at Oregon State University in the realm of “the cultural and historical aspects of the built environment with a minor in anthropology.” What this really means is that I studied how humans create, value, and use the stuff we surround ourselves with, from clothing to cities.
My dissertation research focused on an historical recreation group, the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), and how the knight’s regalia, and the value placed on the items, reflected the wider values of the society as a whole.
It was not an easy ride to get my doctorate degree. I had undiagnosed adult ADHD. Anyone with ADHD reading this knows exactly what I struggled with. On top of ADHD, I was a single parent of two hellions that I love with everything I have. Oh, and funding in the humanities sucks balls so I also worked to help pay for things.
