I know its not Wednesday but it dawned on me when Magnolia one of my readers asked if i could send her the contact info for Aunty S (the lady i used to go for sewing lessons) that i had not covered the basics of using a sewing machine!
I know how could i have forgot to cover blog about such an important topic ? i apologise espcially for thoes who want to join Sew IT and have never sewn before.
I would have liked to make the tutorial myself but that will take a couple of days so i am already late i dont want to prolong it any longer.
Plus i found a great site called Craft & Fabric Links
This site is great for novice sewist they have covered everything. They even have a free sewing book just for beginners!
Chapter 5 covers setting up the sewing machine i really advise any beginner to take some time and read through that book as it has helped me when i was just starting and i am sure it will help you too.
Here are other sites which i found useful
How to sew using a sewing machine from Wiki How (with pictures)
How to sew using a sewing machine from Instructables
My machine has become my best friend you can read all about my machine here
I hope you found those links helpful 
Thank you so much for sharing the tutorial links
