Eric is requesting

Local PDX Sewing mentor, your site

50


50 for fulfilling my request - - Posted Sep 08, 2017

The ability to join fabric with a sewing machine is on my mind. I have a few things in canvas I need to make. As John Snow might say, winter is coming.

So far my efforts to turn youube videos, a Goodwill sewing machine, and my canvas into useful things has been frustrating. I think it's the canvas, or the machine, or me lol. New to sewing.

I would like help. I may need ideas, techneque, time, advice...

Your deliverable is to provide time & advice during daylight, and access to a sewing machine with some toutorage thrown in.

#1 Teach me to sew canvas while touching your equipment and send me home to sew.

Or #2 Let me sew on your equipment to finish 2 items from canvas. I'll teach you why and how of waxed canvas if you are interested. Also offer you eternal grattitude and good coffee.

I really hope for #2. The Goodwill sewing machine has proved to be frustrating. I want to pass it along rather than continue our troubled relationship. I no longer believe that particular sewing machine and I will become the great friends I hoped when we first peddled home together. Thanks.
