What's the best - its free! Some of the gowns go back to the 1870's - shortly
after the State was incorporated.
I'll be visiting and will write a report on it for the list.

Umm - the green buttonholer does not do zig-zag stitching for seams,
just buttonholes with the little disks in it. There is a zig-zag
attachment you can get as well.
Happy sewing.

First thing - try turning the needle around. If it is in backwards (as
is common) it could be the problem. I've seen several broken
machines where that turned out to be the only problem.

Penny, it looks like a hemmer to me, that attaches to the bed of the

covers and amount of stuffing, it has accounted for me over a 40 lb.

I must tell you costume wise, that a very important exhibition is taking
place in Copenhagen by all places in September, showing court fashions of
men from 17th century to 18th century
, treadleon, etc, etc. How do I know this?
Well.

historical costume and another world opened up. I also learned
crochet/knitting/embroidery/macramé about the same time as I learned sewing
(as a kid). Now I'm back to some mundane clothing as well, and
incorporating some features of historic clothing into my mundane wear.

Bjarne, I am in awe! That embroidery looks absolutely fantastic!!!
Makes me wish I had a reason to commission a dress from you someday, the
work is exquisite! I'm sorry we will have to wait for more updates, but I
hope you have a very merry Christmas and enjoy your holidays.

What about the software products like PC Stitch? They cost around $30 and
do the same thing - I've got a several yar old version around here
somewhere... I think I got it originally at Best Buy, but I'm sure you
can order it over the internet.
