In Person Appointments
If you are in the Portland area and would like to meet with me in person, I am scheduling appointments. I'm happy to help with pattern fitting, sewing or design questions.

I am also available for custom work if you would like me to do the sewing for you.

Call (503-624-4822), text (503-984-2539) or email (marla@marlakazell.com) to schedule an appointment.

Appointments are billed at $50 per hour.

Remote Consultations
I am available to answer questions and help you with your projects as you sew. I'm always happy to help my students in whatever way I can.

Please contact me to schedule private consultations via Zoom meeting or Facetime call to:
  • Plan and talk through a project
  • Troubleshoot or problem solve
  • Get help with a specific technique
  • Make a sample together
  • Work on pattern fitting
For ongoing consultations, you may pre-pay for as many hours of time as you wish. We'll clock in and out of each session so you know where your account stands.

Call (503-624-4822), text (503-984-2539) or email (marla@marlakazell.com) to schedule an appointment.

Private consultation time will be billed at $50 per hour.

You will receive an invoice via email, which you can pay with a credit card securely online through Square, or by arranging directly with me to mail a check.




Marla, you are one of the best instructors available to anyone wanting to learn or improve sewing skills. I can't thank you enough for your calm and matter of fact teaching style.
