Bell, who arrived in Hong Kong 16 years ago as a flight attendant, thought that the time was right for her to embrace her passion. With a full-time job as a general secretary for Dragonair Pilots Association, she created a sewing club.
Bell has been sewing since childhood.
“I learned to sew from my mother,” she said. “As a teenager I loved making clothes for myself and friends. After college, I lost interest in sewing and didn’t take it up again until years later when I lived in Berlin. It’s a chance for people that love to sew and craft to get together.”

“Some of my best friends are fellow sewers,” she said. “You learn about people and their lives while they sew. We all enjoy a good laugh and a chat, too. It helps us all to de-stress.”
