I live in Atlanta, GA and am trying to find someone to teach me basic hand sewing (this is all new to me). I became interested when I picked up the Alabama Stitch Book. Does anyone know of any instructors in Atlanta? Thanks!

Hello, Linda. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm the moderator of alt.sewing and, although you'll certainly be welcome to post here in the future, you must first make application to me via email. Thank you. :-)
Try a local fabric store for an instructor referral. There are usually bulletin boards up in the fabric stores that have business cards for folks in the area that sew professionally and/or give lessons. If you don't see a board, ask one of the clerks. Sometimes they even sew for hire, or give lessons on the side. If they don't, they will most likely know someone who can help you.
Also, look for a copy of the Reader's Digest Complete Guide to Sewing. There are several editions out. I have a couple. Both of them have really good hand stitch directions (with pictures.)
