    Hi, guys! I'm the daughter of a great seamstress, but I am totally new to sewing myself. My mom always wanted me to learn and I never put any effort into it until I got married and had a baby. Now the need strikes! hehe

    I just got a Singer 15-91 and I'm totally in love with it! I still have lots to learn regarding to how to use it, but I've been reading wonderful topics in these forum that have been very helpful.

    I'll be around! Nice to meet you all! :)

    Hi Priscila! Your story is almost identical to mine. I had absolutely no interest in sewing until I had my first baby :)
    But my Mom is not a seamstress, in fact she only sewed a little and there are no sewers in my family!!

    Oh, you will want to check out the Vintage Sewing Machine Shop under the Main category. There is a regular group of people who hang out there and discuss their vintage and antique machines. There is also a thread in Pictures of Vintage Sewing Machine Pictures. You should put up a picture of yours.

    Welcome!! You're among friends here!

    Wow! I'm amazed on how many people this forum has! Nice to meet everyone! :D

    How did you guys start being interested into sewing?

    I remember that I started wanting to fix clothes at home, fix curtains, make couch pillows... And never could because I didn't have a swewing machine! Initially that's what motivated me to get one. Still need to get started though! I'll have to do some self-teaching for now since I never found sewing classes here where I live and my mom is far away in Brasil right now. She said she is going to teach me through Skype. :P
