Can't wait for it to come in the mail~ Just had to share my great news!! Now maybe I can get the other for Christmas! mgf

The other thing that I've found is great is buying books used from Amazon, I've gotten some really cool stuff that way. Ticia |

I never had a book when I was learning. I used to study each pattern sheet with directions for hours on end. I sewed for my kids and that gave me loads of experience on different fabrics and methods for pants, vests, jackets, etc. I guess it is all according to what you need to learn. MaryW
