I still remember the first time I used the Internet. A friend (and coworker) came into my office, which had just been outfitted with a new 486 computer and access to something called the World Wide Web.
My friend and I stared at the screen, not really sure what to do. She suggested that she had heard of something called Yahoo, perhaps that was worth checking out. Eight hours later, neither one of us had moved, as one search string led to another led to another---and all these years later, my love affair with this endless information pit has never wavered.
Yet I still find myself awed and amazed by all the Internet has to offer. Like this fantastic web site for people who sew---of ALL levels---called BurdaStyle. The success of the site is a credit to its many members and collaborators, who post their own current projects, as well as useful instruction how-tos and patterns---free patterns, too!
There are so many great ideas, updated constantly---I can't imagine anyone not being inspired by all the wonderful creatively contributors. Even the most home-ec challenged among us will rethink the needle and thread after browsing through the project pages. Pour yourself a glass of iced tea, and like my friend Susan and me and our first Internet experience, I expect you won't resurface for HOURS! :-)
