baby swaddlers pattern by
CySew
I am trying to find a pattern or directions for making what I saw advertised
last week, a baby swaddler. It looks simple, maybe just one piece of
fabric, but the picture in the ad is not clear enough to see the details.
Can anyone help?
I seem to have gotten a bad cold, it is raining and quite...

Sewing machine technical question by
Larry Jaques
Hi, all! I've been lurking on the group for a couple weeks now and
have seen a few folks with technical knowledge, so I have a question.
I picked up an old Universal sewing machine for $5 at a garage sale

cutting strips by
Dawn Alguard
I'm making cushion covers and I need to cut three strips 7 1/2" wide and
3 feet long. I can't figure out the best way to do this to make sure
they're nice and square and even. The fabric has no pattern and isn't
the kind that will rip along a straight line.
The best plan I've come up with so far...

Good News!
Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended?
Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or
synagogue will get them to Heaven.
