learn something new every day

Tyler took me to the sewing machine shop today.

"I'll just be a few minutes,"

I told him.

I really did intend to be just a few minutes....

But

the people in there are so helpful

and I have so much to learn

that I usually end up taking longer than I think I will.

Today

I learned that when you are working with a thin / soft fabric

if you spray it with starch and run the iron over it

you'll be able to handle it more easily.

That'll come in handy when I'm using my new

rolled hem foot

(thanks, Love!)

I also learned that they have a really nifty tool /toy

for the bargain price of $3,300

and I'd best start saving my pennies
