Hello! Once upon a time I made real garments. Now I make quilts. I also make an occasional patchwork vest, and even some medical scrubs. I would like to get back into garment sewing. I want to make some simple but stylish blouses, skirts and casual wear. I DO know my way around a regular sewing machine, can use a basic pattern, and have basic skills. I guess you could say I am not an entry level sewist, but a re-entry! What do you recommend for a basic sewing textbook? (I have a serger, but don't really know how to use it. I will 'graduate' to that next year. For now, I want to work with my SM.) Thanks. PAT in VA/USA
