"Londa,
I just finished disc 3 (for the first time!) from hour new Stretching Your Knit Sewing Know-How DVD and had to tell you how great it is!!! I have been sewing since I was 10 years old (just a year or so, Ha Ha!) and still learned many new things. You reminded me that when I get down I should "go to my room" and sew. It always makes things better.
You have a great eye for color and pattern. This has made me look at myself differently and the styles that look best on me. I am sorry that I can't make it to the spring retreat this year because my niece is getting married that weekend. I hope to come next year because I enjoyed it so much."Please keep teaching!! You are wonderful at it and I always learn so much."

"I received the DVD Stretching Your Knit Sewing KNow-How and I am thrilled!!! I had just about given up on knits because I was never satisfied with the necklines and hem. You have such a pleasnt personality and I appreciate very much the time and experience you have put into this DVD. I am so inspired that I have ordered your patterns and other recommended notions and can't wait to get started. So glad I came across some of your videos on YouTube."
