About: Hi, I am a quilting teacher and book author who lives on a budget. I love writing, sewing, quilting, teaching and playing with my pet rabbits. I have a blog at http://www.crazyshortcuts.com/margueritas-blog/…
Lots of people want to learn to sew and this vid gives tips on how to get started very inexpensively. This is a very short entry because it is for a 30 second video contest :)
Please check out my longer 'ible about Old Sewing Machines here https://www.instructables.com/id/Old-Sewing-Machines-are-Hidden-Treasures/
Start by looking for an older, mechanical machine - they are great for learning on and pretty inexpensive. In fact, if you find one in a cabinet you can take it out of the cabinet and sell the cabinet!
Be sure to clean and oil the machine before sewing with it.
Check out books from your library on sewing basics and maybe start a sewing circle in your town so that many people can learn from each other :)
