It’s that time of year again when we begin to get ready for our Customer Appreciation Days. This year the dates are November 30, and December 1 & 2. Donna from Babylock will be here to demonstrate the machines and answer any questions you might have. Special pricing, Door Prizes and super snacks and beverages will be available. We are giving away two machines this year-entries are based on dollars spent-for each $50 spent, you will receive one ballot for the machine draw. We will have the new Class Schedule ready for the Customer Appreciation Days, and will have copies to hand out. You can also sign up at this time. If there are any classes you would like to see given, please let us know so we can schedule it in. NEW: Chrome Sewing Machine Needles. From the Schmetz Website:
There is a new needle in town . . . SCHMETZ® Chrome Professional Grade needles! Power Quilters, Embroidery Enthusiasts and Stitch Mavens are sewing faster and more intensely than ever. New home sewing machines are built to sew faster than ever - 1000 stitches/minute and more. SCHMETZ® Chrome Professional Grade is the perfect sewing partner.
Chrome resists heat. Chrome resists wear. That little needle takes a beating stitch by stitch and it gets hot. Chrome will stay cool longer with less stitch distortion. Chrome aids the thread to pass through the needle eye with less friction and less heat build-up. Chrome also allows the needle to pass through the fabric with less resistance.
For years Chrome has been the needle choice by industry professionals, and now SCHMETZ® Chrome is available for our home sewing machines. We have a full selection of these new needles in stock now. Fabric and Pre-cuts are arriving from several of our suppliers, and the shelves are once again bulging. The Christmas and Wildlife fabric is especially lovely, and we have kits made up, along with samples for you to check out. We just received several bolts of beautiful batiks in a wide variety of colours and designs. We are now handling the EuroSteam irons. These irons run on a boiler system, and we love them here at the shop. They will handle the toughest creases and wrinkles with ease. Ask for a demonstration as they are now the irons we are using here at the shop. Please get your Christmas Quilts in for long-arming as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. I will be doing my best to keep up with the demand.
