Cath79 Report post Posted December 14, 2011 Hello All I've been a lurker for many years, and finally joined! There's a wealth of helpful info on here, and though I'll have questions, I hope I can help answer a few as well. I sew leather upholstery (mainly motorcycle seats), and am hoping to get into some more projects, like purse and handbags. I do fabric sewing as well, and I have been sewing for many years. My mom taught me to hand sew in grade 3, so I used to make clothes for my barbies. I learned to use a machine in grade 6. I took some sewing in highschool, but mostly I am self taught. Just bought a new industrial (Cobra 4) as a replacement, and am having a hard time, so I am here to find some answers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
