Where can I get an up to date copy of this FAQ?
There are four textile related FAQs. The first list concentrates on general
sewing questions and supply information and restoring antique sewing machines.
The second list concentrates on costuming and historical clothing. The third
posting contains a list of books that cover sewing, fitting and pattern
drafting. The fourth is an index to quilting FAQs that are maintained by
various individuals and are available by email request.
When looking for an FAQ list, first do the obvious and check the relevant
newsgroup for articles with "FAQ" in the subject line. If you don't know how
to check articles marked as read, your sysadmin can tell you. Next, try the
group news.answers since this FAQ is crossposted there. Again, your sysadmin
can tell you the commands to use in searching.
If you cannot find the FAQ on your system, you can retrieve a copy from
Jonathan Kamen's archive of periodic postings. For general instructions on
the server, send email containing the commands "help" and "send index" (no
quotes, separate lines) to
mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu
For a list of all periodic postings that are archives in news.answers, email
the command "send usenet/news.answers/index" to the server.
via anonymous FTP:
Periodic postings including FAQs are archived at "rtfm.mit.edu" (currently
