Hi Sara,
 SG> Advice needed.  My friend is teaching her daughter to sew on the
 SG> machine.  We are both right handed but 10 year old, Christine, is a
 SG> lefty.  Does anyone know of any special equipment (other than
 SG> scissors) or any good books or any hints that one would offer
I'm a lefty also but found it doesn't make much difference in machine
sewing.  The machines are very right hand oriented, true, but Christine
will just have to work with it.  I do cut out right handed; I was forced
to use my right hand for a number of years before left handed scissors
came out.  Now I'm still more comfortable cutting right handed. (BTW, I
have a pair of left handed Fiskars shears I don't use; they need a good
home if she's interested.)
 SG> encountering unique problems that those of us in a right handed world
 SG> never even thought of.
Give me some ideas of the problems she's having; that will help me give
better advice.
Catch you later,
Ruth
