Sewing Notes

I just picked up An Introduction to Sewing and Fabric to make sure that I'm up to speed with my basic sewing knowledge.  It's a wonderful introduction to sewing.  I'm re-learning things I learned years ago.  So far, the most important thing I've re-learned is:

Stitch length should adjust according to fabric type and whether or not the project is a construction seam or a run of top-stitching; and that thread content should vary according to application along with the needle type, but they work hand-in-hand.  These will make a difference in how the fabric reacts to being stitched and the final finish in top-stitching.

Go get sewing!
