Re: Book Giveaway: "1,000 Clever Sewing Shortcuts & Tips"

Being still in the beginner level of sewing i recently learned that if you open the zipper you don't have to use a zipper foot. And since I don't have a zipper foot it comes in quite handy. Learned this online.

Re: Book Giveaway: "Horrockses Fashions: Off-the-Peg Style in the '40s and '50s"

What wonderful inspiration this would be to have in my sewing room. Being that I'm self taught sewer and only a little over a year now. I can sure use all the inspiration I can find.

Re: MAGAZINE AND DVD GIVEAWAY: "Teach Yourself to Sew"

This would mean so much to me to win this. I am a self taught sewer still in the beginning stages. Only been sewing a year. I learn by your blog and by other wonderful pages on the internet and books.

Being a disabled housewife sewing is great therapy for me. I love being able to make simiple things and give them as gifts to someone for holidays or just because.

Happy Sewing
Heather

Re: Book Giveaway - Sewing For Children

This book would be fantastic to own. I'm a self taught sewer. I sew for my step children and my neighbor girls who are 5 and 9. I'm still a beginner and this would teach me so much. I use donated fabrics and re purpose things to create something beautiful. Having several health issues Sewing has become a great source of therapy for the bad days.
