Hi, I'm Judith and I am once again trying to learn to sew well, rather
than adequately, I found you when searching for information on steam
pressers. I need one!
My problems generally have more to do with language rather than tricky
sewing techniques. My machine is a Singer, but bought here in Italy
and the book is simpler than any sewing machine book I have ever had
and in Italian. I speak Italian, but sewing Italian is a different
language.
Brands are often different names here, too, so I have to search a lot
to find out who rally makes something so I can gather English language
reviews or comments.
I shall now retire to a corner and listen in so maybe when I post next
I will sound intelligent.

Hi Judith,
Welcome! May I suggest you also subscribe to the alt.sewing newgroup,
that one seems to be more active with more posts than this group is.

Welcome Judith,
We are glad to have you. As Irene mentioned please join us at alt.
sewing also. It is a more active group and you will be glad you came.
Don't retire to a corner though. Ask what ever comes to mind. No matter
what you may think about a question I think you will get an answer to
unless we just don't have one.

alt.sewing group. Stay awhile, ask any necessary questions and some of us
will try to answer them.
