I used to know how to sew with a needle and a thread but I've forgotten (I haven't sewed in about 5-7 years). Are there any websites that'll help me re-learn?

Thanks! :)

I love these thread earrings that take several different thread colors and weave them together on a wire frame for an earring. I am sure that I could easily make these but I am having a hard time finding out how to. Any suggestions. I need to know where to get the wire frame or if they just make it themselves....any ideas are welcome.

I just bought a sewing pattern from Simplicity, and I've worked with a pattern before, but it only showed one way to place the pattern on fabric. In this pattern it showed 4 different ways to place the pattern. And I know that with some patterns you can make different things (ex. 6 different shirts in one pattern), but on mine, pattern D came with D1, D2, D3, D4. How do I know which pattern to pick?

strange misprints that came up in the Washingtons? Is it more valuable to open that case ( I understand the one "faceless" coin is worth $60,000) or will they be more collectible because they are in teh original federal wrappers?. For what it's worth I just intend to toss them in a drawer until the whole series comes out

2nd related question. One of my evil progeny went into the drawer and stole all the Thomas Jeffersons and the banks no longer have them. Where is a good (CHEAP) source for fed wrapped jefferson dollars?

Hi. Could you please tell me where and how I could learn how to play a guitar over the net? I've been trying to find websites on google but apparently they are useless. The thing is I've got a guitar but I don't know how to play it. I don't even know how to read music. I would like to learn how to play it. I've also been trying to find a music piece so that I could play my guitar while trying to read it. even though I don't have a lot of knowledge, I don't even know what and where to tune to at the end of the neck of the guitar. If you know any websites or any advice, please help me. I can't afford to go to lessons. It's expensive.

I need an easy to read book or website, with instructions for some basic stitches, to create small pieces of costuming.

I need something like chainmail, but it doesnt need to be stiff, or from wire (they take a long time to make). I am hoping to create something similiar with metallic yarn and possibly very small guage wire, with easy to create stitches.

Any help is appreciated.

I asked a question a few days ago about a pattern and the best answerer replied "...knit into the front and the back legs of the next stitch, work 12 more stitches in pattern, knit into the next stitch front and back (this is the simplest increase), and then work the next 12 stitches and knit front and back into the last stitch. You should now have 42 stitches."

Now, does the edge stitch not count when casting on? I've always noticed that when turning my work after casting on, the first knit stitch does not want to transfer over. Also, what does "knit into the next stitch front and back" mean?

Help!

Thanks!

I just received this as a gift for Christmas. I was told that it was very expensive and gave the impression of wealth in Africa. We had a forty dollar limit on our gifts but i am not sure if that is what this is worth. Please tell me if this has any value or if it is just a " regift".

I found this binocular (most likely used for operas) in my house. They are Mother of pearl and around the eye rim carved Chevalier. I don't think it had a year on it. How much do you think it's worth? (I'm not planning on selling it, it's just good to know)

Well, my friends birthday is like around May but I just recently thought of this idea. Basically he's a big 'Vital Signs' fan (which is a pakistani band which i dont know much about, but i know they broke up more than a decade ago) anyways, I look on eBay and googled around for any Vital Signs T-Shirts but I couldnt find any. So I thought of getting one made, by sending in their logo to some t-shirt making place. This is where i am wondering, Is this legal? If so, where can i get this done at what price, I live in Mississauga, Canada so i would want something local or mail would be fine i guess...
Also how is this for a gift idea?

"m wanting to sell my pottery on the side. I don't really want to do consignment (although I may) But I'm more curious in selling at either craft fairs or through a website (prefer not to use eBay). Questions:
- Do I need a legal business name - and where do I go to get this (how much do they run typically?)
- Anyone familiar with booth presentation at fairs? They say they want a pic of booth presentation - what's up with this?
- Do you know of any websites that explain how to set up a website for selling stuff? Professional but on the budget side?
- Where can I get a list of art shows going on around my area (georgia) - would it be the Chamber of each county?

Any help would be great. I'm a single mom, in college with a full-time job. I have very unique, functional pottery that amazingly sells very well (was with a pottery business for a while) and I need to start a small - at home side business for a little extra cash.

Just need to know what I need to get started.
