Sub forum I'd like to see: Homesteading --> Sewing

under homesteading a sub forum for sewing.
when I went to post about my new sewing machine took me forever to figure out where to post it...lol
I of course looked for an area dealing with sewing.

Put together a list in this thread, containing links to 50 or more threads specifically about sewing, and I'll volunteer the labor to add them to a new forum. Be sure to send me a purple moosage after the list is compiled, cause I see those more reliably than posts in threads.

thank you , i'll be happy to do that.

these all seem like they would do well in a sewing topic area:

not sure if I found 50, but this might encourage others to post more in this subject, share patterns , ect….
there is a pep badge for sewing items..

I think this is a great idea. I've got a number of sewing/mending related things I should post about, but haven't had the time.

I would love a sewing forum.

These look great.  I'll take a closer look in the morning and see f there is anything else we need to make the forum.

The list is getting there. 35 threads so far. Almost to 50.

I'm wondering about putting the new sub-forum under the "Fiber Arts" forum.
