What is a Burda sewing pattern?

FAQ - burdamode.com
It’s a large sheet of paper on which all the sewing patterns are printed for all the relevant standard German (Burda) sizes. You can either immediately cut out these pattern pieces in your size, or trace them onto another sheet of paper (and keep the original for later re-use). Each sewing pattern package consists of the pattern sheet(s), sewing instructions and style illustration(s), always in several different sizes and often with various alternatives.

I am looking for a specific style of vintage apron sewing pattern, can you help me try to find it?

angry chicken: My FAQ. (Or, The Longest Post Ever.)
Your best bet is to look through the massive collection of patterns in the Vintage Apron Patterns Group I have on flickr. These are from private collections, but seeing an image might help and then you can always try to contact the owner of the pattern and see if you can swap/trade, etc. Ah, yes. I actually post about this here. It's against flickr rules to sell from a photo and I don't want my account to get yanked.

alphaWorks : Design Pattern Toolkit : FAQs
The pattern can be thought of as a transformation between the input application definition and the complete set of generated source artifacts. There are template tags that let you transform the application definition into an intermediate XML form and then navigate that XML to drive the generation of source artifacts. Each source artifact is generated as a result of applying the modified application definition to a specific pattern template.

What brand of sewing machine do you recommend?

Critter Pattern Works - FAQ
More important than what brand you buy, is to get the machine from a dealer that you like and trust. Most sewing machine dealers will bend over backwards for the customers that bought their machine from them. Look for free classes, warranties, extended service, and trade-up policies. Be sure to take a project into the store and play with the prospective new (or used) machine. If the shop won't let you touch the machine, go elsewhere to buy.
