... of anyone handy with sewing machine. Yes I know it's not knitting related, but there's some common ground; I certainly have an interest in sewing too but don't have an instruction book for my sewing machine and rugby (and knitting) take up too much time for me to learn by trial and error.
Anyway - I haven't bought any fabric yet, but I wanted two pairs of curtains making up; I'm prepared to pay of course. I know I could go to Dunelm or somewhere similar, but would rather give it to someone local rather than a faceless national chain provided they can work to a professional standard.
Equally I'm a bit limited in fabric choice with the nationals, if I source myself I have a wider gamut to choose from.
No worries if not, but thought I would ask here. I'm only a two year local (from Cambs originally), and I can't think of anyone here really. You lot seem fairly knowledgable about all things crafty. It'd a pity you don't knit curtains, I could do it myself then.
