Jennifer has a wonderful (as always) post about embroidery.  I purchased a great book about embroidery a few weeks ago.  I realized yesterday that all the pictures are for righties.  I don't know why it took me to long to realize how difficult it will be for me to learn to do these stitches.  I think that's why I couldn't figure out mattress stitch very well.  All the stitches come from the right, I sew from the left.  Any suggestions?  Help!!!  I want to start doing a little bit of embroidery.

    a quick google search brought up this: http://white-threads.blogspot.com/2008/08/tips-for-left-handed-embroiderers.html, there was also a book on amazon about left handed stitching.
    my mom is left handed – i am right handed – to this day, i’m pretty sure i crochet backwards! lol!
