Hi All, I understand I've posted this in the wrong place and I apologize. I certainly didn't try to annoy anybody!

Kathleen, I'm happy your a member of this group as well, because I think you are aware of my past efforts on the subject and the way I like to share information. I felt a little like I'm being a 'troll' but that's simply not way I act.

Nevertheless, I'm inviting myself to stay in this fine group and participate :)

Thank you all, Amitai

Welcome to R.C.T.S, we are happy to have folks who wish to share their skills and knowledge.

Harumph! to you, too! If you'll look around, you'll see several men who post regularly to this N.G. because they do anywhere from a little to a lot of sewing. We make no assumptions here - what sewgirls does....well....I have no idea since I've never looked at their site.

I think perhaps you missed my point...my sewgirls.com sign-on name was chosen to disparage sewGIRLS' sexism , ergo Sew BOYZ.

Get it? :D

Not to mention pattern-drafting wetware.

It loses something to those of us who don't access Usenet from a clunky web-based interface.

I comprehend your post, but I do not "get it."
