Do
you need a special place to keep your sewing machine? Do you need a
good place to do the cutting for your special project that won't hurt
your back? We have all our Horn Cabinets on sale. We also have a new
sewing table on display, which is perfect for those who do not have a
lot of space for a cabinet. This the perfect gift for you. The cabinets
come in a variety of colors.
We
have several previously loved sewing and embroidery machines available
for adoption. Now you can get the machine that you have always wanted
at a great price. Come see me, I have some super deals on these and
the Sapphires that we used on our recent cruise. I also have the
original Designer Diamond for sale at greatly reduced prices.
CLASS REGISTRATION
It is necessary to register for all classes in advance. Class space is limited and fills quickly. Paying your class fee is
what actually holds your space and prevents you from being dropped when
the class fills. Some classes require advance preparation and
purchases. WHEN REGISTERING, ASK FOR A SUPPLY LIST.
Register
in person, by mail, by e-mail or by phone using a credit card, check or
cash. If the class is cancelled a full refund will be given or you can
transfer the cost to another class.
Be
sure your machine is in good working order. It should have a new
needle. If you have not had your machine serviced in two (2) years, it
is time to do so.
YOU MUST REGISTER FOR OWNER'S CLASSES AS WELL.WE
NEED TO KNOW AT LEAST ONE (1) DAY IN ADVANCE IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND.
YOU CAN CALL ME OR E-MAIL ME TO LET ME KNOW. THERE ARE TIMES
EMERCENCIES COME UP AND I HAVE TO CANCEL OR CHANGE THE CLASS. IF I
KNOW WHO IS PLANNING ON ATTENDING CLASS I CAN NOTIFY YOU OF ANY
CHANGES, RATHER THAN HAVING YOU SHOW UP ONLY TO BE DISAPPOINTED. YOUR
HELP WITH THIS IS TRULY APPRECIATED.
