    Hi From Nz

    Hi everyone, I have done my first stiching, ever today, It feels great. I followd Al Stohlmans instructions, it worked a treat. I only repaired old broken stiches on my horse harness, but I did it. Now what next can I do, I am sure have more broken bits I can repair. Until next time, have a great day
