Techie Tips will give you advice about using your computer more effectively, with a couture/dressmaking/tailoring slant, of course.   OK, I'm sure you know something about them already or you wouldn't be reading this now, but I'll be offering you some tips to get the best out of using your computer to support your hobby!
