A big thank you to Schuhby and Youtube

[sparky514]

When I introduced myself a few weeks ago I explained that I hadn't sewn since school, and wasn't really up to scratch, anyway, I had made a lot of cushions with just the flap at the back, so decided this weekend to try and do one with a zip (got cold sweats at the thought), got my books out and started to read the instructions, and got my head in a right tizz, just could not follow the written instructions, it was all gobbledygook to me, so thought I'd look around youtube, cos I know there are some bits and bobs about sewing on there.

Soon found Schuhbys video, what a life saver, watched it twice, and put the zip in, in one sitting, and I was over the moon, so a very big thanks to you both, hope it wasn't a one time fluke. lol

Thank you very much, I'm blushing here but appreciate your taking the time to leave this post.

My pleasure, I'm sure without it, I would have been tearing my hair out. I now realise that I can't follow written instructions and am obviously a visual learner, so will have to try and find some courses in my area, anyone with any ideas I live in Northumberland, not too far from Newcastle upon tyne though.

Try the Training section of the forum here http://www.my.decozo.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=217 - if you use your postcode or town name and something like 'furnishing' as the subject you should find some courses........
