I, like many, am returning to sewing after going off piste and doing some heavy studying with the Open University. Now I've got that out of my system I'm revitalising my creative side and warming up the old hand-eye-sewing machine coordination which has been dormant for several years.
I used to make bridal wear and other dressmaking commissions but now I need to start using up the accumulated stash of fabrics that I squirrelled away over the years and make some nice things for myself. I bought a Pfaff Creative Vision 5.0 with all the embroidery software and attachments about ten years ago and although I did some embroideries for wedding garments at the time, I never truly examined and mastered the vast scope of the machine's potential so now I am going back to page 1 of the manual to start all over again. If anybody is familiar with this machine I'd be truly grateful for a chin wag some time. No doubt that as soon as I get stuck (probably about page 6) I'll be posting a message on the 'machines' page!
I'm pleased to be here and look forward to some sewing talk in the future.
