Re: BOOK GIVEAWAY: "Couture Sewing Techniques" by Claire B. Shaeffer

I really want to learn more about correctly lining a garment because at the moment my knowledge is limited and I tend to only line something if I have the lining pattern included. I have made a few basic linings but to learn more sophisticated techniques would be great.

Re: Book Giveaway: "Draping Basics" by Sally M. Di Marco

I only recently got my dressform so I haven't had much of a chance to try very much draping. I've done a little "playing" with out any instructions and I'd love to learn more since I've seen so many amazing creations online that were "draped" :)

Re: Add Your Input to the Sewing Group and Gathering List

I think the BurdaStyle Sewing Clubs are worth a mention, I co-run the Perth, Western Australia club with Sandra but here is the link to a full list of both US and International clubs: http://www.burdastyle.com/blog/join-a-local-burdastyle-sewing-club :)
There is a google map to help you find your nearest club and you can contact the club leaders from that list or join the BSC network on Ning.com here http://burdastyleclubs.ning.com/ and find your nearest club to join.

Re: Giveaway: Simplicity Bias Tape Maker

Wow! I never would have imagined something like this existing, it makes my little clover bias tape maker seem puny, I'd love to just try this out, but to win one would be awesome! :)
