SAW THIS ON FACEBOOK....CAN YOU RELATE?

I am posting this with a heavy heart. The struggle is real.

I love my embroidery machine and everything that comes with it... but I am done in 2020. This is taking up too much of my time. I am struggling to keep up with the everyday chores of cooking, cleaning and maintaining my home, so something has to give. I have decided to get rid of my stuff.

Below is a list of what's available. Serious inquiries only, and please don't insult me with low offers.

Thanks for reading and understanding...

1. Vacuum cleaner

2. Dustpan and brush

3. Mop and bucket

4. Lawn Mower

5. Leaf blower

6. Laundry detergent

7. Stove

8. Broom

Anything helps for more sewing supplies.

SAVE THE DATE FOR THIS SOFTWARE 8 EVENT!

Saturday February 15, 2020 10 to 2 pm (with lunch break)

taught by Sharon Clark, cost is $30, bring your lunch

This class is for software users who already have a good introduction to the Bernina 8 software. It is not for beginners. As a guide, you should have some knowledge of the topics in the first 6 YouTube videos. Anyone who has attended my/Natalie’s classes in the past will be good to go. Here is a link to the tutorials. Click here

Pictures of our project will be coming soon! We will be creating and stitching an in-the-hoop tag in a few different sizes that can be used as luggage tags (Including our Bernina luggage systems) as well as project bag tags etc. You will be learning skills in Corel Draw in connection with embroidery. (Also included will be some instructions for the Janome Artistic Edge cutter) If time permits we will also create an embossed design for towels etc. that you can stitch out at home after seeing the set up in the class.

You will need to bring your laptop computer with Software 8.2 loaded on it. Directions are on the Bernina website. Click here

We will be using cork which will be available through the store. A full supply list will be coming soon but it is very simple. There is no need for sewing machines: The store will have some set up.

TIP OF THE MONTH

It can be a real pain to change your thread often when you are doing machine embroidery. Why not do what we do when we use our overlocker to make threading the needle easier? Simply cut your needle thread near the spool, then tie on the next color and pull the thread through the needle. Presser foot and needle both in up position. Yes, the knot will go through the needle as long as you use a 70 or larger needle. Especially helpful if your machine doesn't have an auto threader.

Have you had a chance to stitch up these fun Janine Babich Table Display embroidery kits? We've got most of the seasonal patterns in stock and ready for you to stitch and display. We also have the frames. Come and get one or two!
