The Sewing Elfs

Well all the people didn't go to the mall today. We had about 12 or 14 people that dropped in during the day and done the quilting project with Rebecca and some done the charity sewing with Maggie. We are happy to announce that we have finished the 92 kits that Maggie had cut and they will be delivered to Childrens Hospital next week. We started today like a "Sweat Shop" some put the pillowcase together and some done the sewing and some done the ironing. It is amazing how fast you can do one when you just sew and somone else is doing the other work. You can tell the first time we finished only 29 and today we finished the rest of the 92 kits. Thanks to all that helped to complete the project.

What a wonderful time

What a great time we have had this weekend doing some much needed cleaning and arranging the store. Karen brought us some more new fabric so Kent had to get out the saw and build some new shelves. We got new tables, the decorations are going up and you will all be suprised how pretty and glittery the store is. Thanks Lisa for the great job. Martha and I both dropped by the store on Sunday afternoon and brought our 4 legged children Rachel and Buster and did they have good time playing. It was like long lost friends and they had never seen one another. So now you have a headsup on what has taken place this weekend so come on by and take a look. I'm sure we will still be putting the finishing touches on Monday. See everyone soon. Carolyn

A day at the store.

Block of Month

Block of Month #3 is ready to be picked up. If you are behind and need help contact the store and we will help. And remember to bring in your finished block. Martha will picture and put on the web. Look at the web site under the photo section for the ones that have been brought into the store. Also if you need to download a picture of the completed quilt it is on the web page and it says to click to download a picture. Would make a great screen saver. Until next time. Carolyn

Rebecca's teaching



Attention everyone!!! Rebecca will be in the store on Friday the next day after Thanksgiving and do a class on this beautiful quilt. It is easy to do and the really neat thing about it is everyone does not have to start at the same time. On that day we are also having a "Charity Sew In" to make pillow cases for Chrildrens Hospital and Hospice and Serenity Shelter. So with the 2 class going you can do Rebecca's class and then make a few pillow cases. You just need to bring your sewing machine and be ready to sew. What great fun spending the day with your sewing friends. On Rebecca's class you will need 1 1/2 yards of striped fabric you will not need your border fabric until you are finished. The cost of the class is 10.00 for the teacher fee and $8.00 for the pattern. You do need to call and let us know if you are coming. No need to get your fabric ahead of time you can get that at the store when you get there. And guess what Karen went and got more fabric today and she got lots of strips just for this class.
Now if you are coming for the "Charity Sew In" you just bring your machine and you will pay $1.00 for each fabric kit that you get to make. We have had several to call and say that they wanted to make the pillow cases but just could not come on that day. So we are getting the fabric kits and you can pay your fee and we will keep a list of who got how many and our deadline to get them back in the store will be the following week after the sew in. Remember these are made with Christmas fabric and we need to get them made and delivered.

Did you catch what I wrote earlier? Karen went and purchased more fabric today. We will have it in the store next week. Be prepared.

One more thing. Are you wishing you had one of the new "Quattro" machines. We have a deal on the machine that will be hard to beat. The special runs until Nov 30. Tell your Santa that you have been good and you want to help him out in making the right decision in that Christmas gift and bring him on down to see the machine or just print off the web page the "Black Friday" sale that started today and give him that much need hint of what you want for Christmas. If you have the Quattro and are wanting the new "BES" software it is on the sale flyer and we just got a shipment in today. Another macine we were out of that arrived today is the PR 650 and tell Santa it has 36 months same as cash financing available until Nov 30. Until next time take care see ya all soon.

Fred's Great Brother Announcement!

Circular Attachment Testimonial

"Dear Brother,
I am WOWED by the new Circular Attachment Bundle. I am a sewing instructor at MidSouth's Best Sewing, plus an avid quilter. Quilters are always looking for different techniques. I immediately found endless possibilities using this tool. Every quilter should have one and I am going to demonstrate this to everyone in our store. For instance you can take a piece of fabric and make a 'wholecloth' quilt using this attachment. When making home decor projects like pillows, placements and creative funky projects it makes me smile every time I use it. The Oven Mitt project posted on the Brother web site is a great little project to start with. We will also use it as a club project soon. If you haven't tried this yet you are missing out on a lot of fun. We have scheduled store demonstrations. Check out our times on our web site in the classes on www.mbsewing.com. Tip: Always use stabilizer with this attachment.
Yours Truly,
Martha Carroll, Education Coordinator"

Well things are really buzzing at the store. The new cutting tables have arrived new fabric came on Fri then again today more came in. The thread supplies came and then here came the bigggg truck with the machines to get us ready for the holiday season. We are needing wall stretchers but believe it not Martha and I got the last bit of the stuff up today. If you were thinking about the PR650 well come on down I have 1 left and the promotion of 36 month financing with monthly payments is still going on. Also next week it is classes everyday. I have a few spots left for LouAnn's "Blooming 9 Patch" class and the only reason I have openings is there was so many wanting to take her class we had to add a second class. Call and get on the list. I can't wait till that class starts we have sure cut some awsum fabric selections. You can bet no two will be alike. If you are coming you might want to bring your camera to picture the other girls creations. Until the next time. All I can say is better get to the store if you want first dibbs on the fabric. Karen sure done a wonderfulllllllllll job selecting.

So many things are happening.

So many things are happening. We'er excited about Patsy coming & then Louann & then James & Quarttro class & all the new stuff..
