Where to begin (sewing)

Congratulations to Erika and Joyce, who are both getting a $25 gift certificate for submitting questions to "What do you want to know?"  Joyce wanted to know how to start sewing with an old machine and Erika asked about buying a new one.  So I gave my two bits here.  I tried to cover how you would start sewing if you never have and that includes using an old hand-me-down machine or buying a new one.  Hopefully, it answers your burning questions as a beginning sewer.  If not, submit your own question.

And my apologies.  I said I would cover two WDYWTK's (What do you want to know?) a month, but I've covered two in two months.  I am starting to draft a couple of others and I will do better.  What have I been doing?  Not cleaning, clearly.

WDYWTK- Cutting Fabric Square

Congratulations to J who just got a $25 gift certificate for her question regarding cutting fabric accurately at right angles.  A couple of people also emailed wanting to know the answer to that question, including my sister, so I thought I had better cover it.  Besides, you were probably beginning to think I started the "What do you want to know" feature and wasn't going to ever answer anything!  I am!  In fact, I have about four topics roughly drafted to roll out over the next few weeks.  So keep those ideas coming!
