I have long admired the talents of sewing guru Sandra Betzina and I found this video on YouTube for her tips (and they are there right to the end -don’t click off!) on sewing with silk.
I also found Sandra’s new website Power Sewing and for the very first time I considered paying for a membership site. Sandra has two wonderful things going for her – many years of real sewing experience *and* an intriguing and easy personality. Unpretentious and helpful with every word, I highly recommend her books and videos. You can even follow her on Twitter!
In fact, if you have 20 minutes to learn a day’s worth of sewing tips *and* be inspired to make some lovely home dec pillows out of any old thing! the check out her free tutorial it kept me hanging on every word!

This is one of the most thorough videos on YouTube. With almost 17,000 views, it’s also very popular. Trish Stuart, author and art quilter as well as teacher, shows the function and use of a horizontal bobbin. A MUST view for anyone with a horizontal bobbin sewing machine.
