Signing in a bit late. I was on the old Sewing Forum but haven't done a lot of sewing over the past year. Now determined to get back into it and looking for somewhere to find advice and a shoulder to cry on.  0_0

I'm gathering materials to have a go at bag making using faux leather. Should be interesting, if nothing else.  :P

Hi poptart, I thought I recognised that name. Welcome back.  0_0
Hopefully back more regularly! Ballroom sewing may be permanently paused but bag making is the current focus.

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes. I'm flattered people remember me.
This looks like a fab new forum, well done to whoever set it up.

Hi Poptart - nice to make your acquaintance.  :) I used to lurk on the old site, and remember your name from there, so it's lovely to see you here. It's great fun.
