Call for help by
BEI Design
Is there a sewist in the Portland, Oregon, U.S.A. area (say 50 mile
radius), who already _owns_ an embroidery machine, and who would be
willing to do a small contract job for me? Someday I'm going to
invest in a machine, but right now is not the time, I can't budget the
expense and I _really_...

just another joke by
Trish Brown
....my dishwasher is called Matthew and he does a pretty respectable job.
Maintenance costs a bit, 'cause he's a man now and has a man's appetite. But

"Entrepeneur's Guide to Sewn Product Manufacturing" by
CHRIS O SULLIVAN
Just want to let people know that this book, by Kathleen Fasanella, is
available on Amazon. Kathleen is the seller and I believe there are
only fifteen or so left. The book has been very difficult to get and I
highly reccommend it.

dress for a wedding by

I have a formal wedding to go to but haven't really found anything
that's struck my fancy RTW wise, so I'm thinking of making something
to wear instead. As much as I like the style of the bottom of the

tastes. So I want to make a...
