Happy Friday!
First of all, we're having a HUGE sale right now. Savings in the store from 15% to 60% off. Come celebrate Fall with us!
Tomorrow, Saturday, September 18th, we're having a Back to School/Back to Sewing Seminar. We'll watch an information packed presentation from BERNINA, then have some neat table top demonstrations to show off new techniques. You'll have the opportunity to try them yourself and learn something new!
We have special financing available during this event as well. So if you're thinking of a new BERNINA, then this is the time to come try one out, and if you have one already, gain some knowledge!
We also have some beautiful projects to show off!
