I'd like to just find a good sewing class nearby. Need some basic skills before I'm ready to go for the real thing.

That's great Alan, I hope it flies and returns on a migratory run. Keep us updated. I've got a monthly sewing meeting group now with a bunch of beautiful ladies. I just like showing up and drinking tea and seeing how they do things. I already learned how to make bias tapes (Flashes to us)much easier than I had been doing them. O'Neille

Alan, that sounds like fun (I love teaching), and a real bargain for the people taking the class. It will be interesteing to see how many people sign up.

I'll bet you get plenty of folks who want to sign-up. Think about setting a maximum cap for the class to get the student/teacher ratio you think will work best for all. That way, when you hit the cap - you can suggest additional sections be taught later in the year.

That does sound like a fun class.

Alan, I've made four "X-Kilts" so far, and will eventually post photos. I've developed a few shortcuts (I use no straight pins at all, for example) and will send those along to you for your consideration as well. I really thank you for the inspiration and the manual to get this ball rolling.
