Showcase 2009
It's Spring - and that means Showcase! We are a part of
the largest Home, Leisure and Consumer Show in the Valley this
year and we're going to 'do it right'. We will be bringing some of
our new machines for you to see and work on as well as a smattering
of all the new stuff we now have in the store, including cross stitch
kits, shiva paint sticks, tsukineko fabric paint and lots of fat
quarters for the fat quarter kick off on Friday. This weekend, April 17, 18 & 19, is the time to
drop in and see us in our main floor booth. We look forward to seeing
you there!

As a contributing sponsor of the 60th Community Auction,
we are pleased to have donated a new Husqvarna Emerald 116 sewing
machine to this very worthwhile cause. Bidding began on Saturday but
will finish at the Showcase this weekend. If yours is the
winning bid, we will also give you the opportunity to 'trade up' with
the full value of the Emerald! Click here to see the latest

Get A Ballot!

Showcase is always a very busy place, with lots to see
and do for everyone in the family. In our main floor booth, we'll be
demonstrating a number of our new machines and we encourage everyone
to drop by and see what these machines can do. As a special
incentive, everyone who stops in and takes 'a test drive' will be
given a ballot for our special battery-powered, rechargeable Ott-Lite Task Lamp draw.
See you there!
