    Congratulations on your retirement.  Hope yours will be as blessed as mine has been.  (I've been retired now just over 2 yrs and I love it.)  Wink
    Hi, I'm new to this forum, but not to sewing. I learned from my mother and grandmother on a treadle machine in the 50's. I appreciate all the tips, especially the one about gathering.

    It is hard to find time for fun sewing (vs. "duty" sewing)when you work full time and have a long commute, so when I am making any project, I tell myself that I and the project are surely worth at least 15 minutes a day. Therefore, I will set aside meal prep, bedtime, cleaning (ugh!), etc. and grant myself those precious 15 minutes every day to sew.

    Rejoice with me! I will retire in 118 days! Cheesy

          When i bought a satin fabric for the first time, it fried and was difficult to handle.
          The second time i used satin, someone told me to take it home and finish the edges with a zigzag stitch. It made my work easier.

          I found more great tips for sewing here:
