As I have been searching around for "viking fabric" I found this website that seems to have some very nice fabric at really good prices that I thought you might be interested in perusing. Not a sales pitch, just a thought. I just ordered some stretchy velvet for a little winter lounging attire ...

Got an email from my cousin's husband. The breathing tube is out, and she can talk, weak as she is, but everything looks good for her, so it is just a matter of time for her rehabilitation. I want to thank each and every one of you here, for the prayers, The Lord was listening. Maine-iac...

Joe, I don't have any answer to your how much time should it take, but I will give you some encouragement. I bought my first sewing machine about 6 weeks ago. I have had no instruction, except for some ideas and feedback from the wonderful folks here in the news groups. I made a tank top out of...
