Hi, I am new to this forum and to any sort of discussion group. I just retired and I am looking forward to many new sewing projests. I have been sewing since I was in middle school with the obligatory home ec class. But even before that my mom taught me a lot and have taken some courses since then. One from a Singer store where I bought my first sewing machine. Look forward to chatting and learning more. glynis

Welcome! You are going to love this group! It is the best one I have found ever! Everyone is so supportive and helpful. I have learned so much from the many knowledgable seamsters on this site! I am a retired (early) nurse and have been sewing since childhood. Enjoy and come often! MaryL
Thank you for your kind words. I always feel that there is no law that says we all have to reinvent the wheel or make the same mistakes. Galey oops! this should have been sent to Mary only. Hope no harm done.
