Posted - Oct 12 2008 : 4:10:41 PM I'm getting back into sewing after years of not doing any! I am really interested in making cothes, and just really learning some of the basic techniques. I learned the VERY basics in 4-h years ago, and am not wanting to expand on those skill. So, do any of you skilled seamstresses have any blogs you follow, online sites you go for inspiration, or great "how to" tutorials you refer to??
any recommendations are welcome! :) |

Posted - Oct 12 2008 : 8:25:53 PM Whoa Nellie....I think I hit the Motherlode! I love recommended websites like someone recommending a good book! I like www.fatquarters.com for material so far but like you, Maggie, I am just getting back into it. I know www.expertvillage.com has tutorials and videos on a variety of subjects but haven't checked "sewing". I used to sew for the kids and home when they were little....but it's been years...I'm talking YEARS!!!
