End of year Sale

Just a reminder, we are having a end-of-year in both stores until the end of the year. Bernina is also having a 75 Hour sale.
Come by both stores for details. This 25% off all merchandise sale (Cabinets - 20%) goes through this weekend. Come by and get those great Bernina savings. We also have a few gently used machine in stock. The Bernina Credit card right now is 18 months same as cash.
Remember at the end of the year we will no longer be a
Pfaff dealer. (Pete & Steve will be able to service them, but will not be able to order parts if needed to fix a broken machine.) We have a few new Pfaffs in stock that are greatly reduced!

Yes, the results of our Christmas Stocking Challenge are in!

First place goes to Bonnie Tise. She receives a $75 Gift certificate from the shop.

Second place goes to Carrie Pippins winning a$50 Gift.(Carrie came into the shop yesterday before the ballots were counted, so we didn't get a picture of her and the stocking. But it was a beautiful hand appliqued stocking.)



And Third place went to Abby Linnell! You go girl. She won a $25 gift certificate (I know Nana and Papa Bob are really proud of her.)
Thanks to ALL who participated in our challenge. We think all who entered are winners in our eyes.

Be watching for details of our next challenge that is in the works. (And of course there will be prizes.)




We have another Quilter in the works. Ellie Schmidt is putting the binding on her first quilt ever! Didn't she do a great job? We are so-o-o proud of her.





The newsletter is at the printers and you will be getting it in the mail (those on the mailing list). Those of you who do not receive it in the mail, come by the shop sometime in the near future and get your copy. By the end of the week, there will be pictures of some of the quilts that will be taught over the next few months.
