Getting Started on Sewing

Sewing is sew good for the soul. I haven't done much sewing for quite some time, but I have several ideas that I would love to implement....But where to get started? I have my stash of fabric, most of which was purchased second-hand, and I have my machine. I never really had any formal training or any informal training for that matter. So, I had to figure it out myself, and there are still so many things I have yet to learn. Here are a few comprehensive sewing books that are extremely helpful for beginners and cool in content.
