Ive been sewing for the past 34 years! I sew for others: church, proms, weddings, marching bands, alterations! All while working full time outside the home. I love to sew. Im a member of the American Sewing Guild. I put on a yearly sewing retreat in New Windsor, Maryland and have lots of friends who sew. I would rather sew then do anything else. I have a Pfaff 2124, Babylock Ellegante 2, Babylock Evolve, and a Brother I got from Walmart for backup. Im currently trying to teach my granddaughter how to sew. She made a pillow case and did very well. I have two grown daughters who will cut out anything but prefer that I sew it because mommy you can sew it faster. LOL Im married to a wonderful man who indulges my fabric and sewing notions frenzies. He no longer asks what are you going to make with that, he knows I dont know but that one day Ill need a dress or a client will stop by and love it. My favorite thing to sew is a wedding gown. I love sewing my creation walk down the isle! I also love embroidery--Im a downloading designs junky....I will never probably stitch out all the designs I have but just like fabric, you never no.

Happy Sewing!

Re: How about a sewing vacation to spark your creativity?

Hi, I'm the President of the Maryland Chapter of the American Sewing Guild. We started a 4-day sewing retreat four years ago and last year it grew to 5 days! It's like a sewing slumber party. We bring our machines and whatever projects we want to work on. We have it at the New Windsor Conference Center, New Windsor, MD. We get 10 delicious meals and have loads of fun!!!!!! There's a Quilt Guild that meets there too.

I like the green cover, I don't like the covers with the models at all.
