WINTER/SPRING 2019 CLASS BROCHURE
A Word From Anne
January 2019
Hello Dear Friends,
Now, THIS is OUR most wonderful time of the year. The weather may be a little frightful, snowing and blowing,
but we’re in our sewing rooms, doing what we love most... quilting, embroidering and sewing up a storm!
Join us as we warm up to winter with new classes, new machines and an big new selection of Arrow Cabinetry,
perfect for every sewing space!
How about getting a head start on Lori Holt’s Vintage Christmas quilt? Gwen is starting classes in March. There
will be no excuse for not having your sampler quilt ready for Christmas 2019! And Kerry is holding classes this
season for her exciting Paint-By-Number Quilts! Her original patterns were a huge hit at the Houston Quilt Show
this past November.
If a new sewing machine is in your future, don’t miss out on Brother’s new Luminaire XP1. It boasts a huge 13”
throat and a 16” embroidery hoop - the largest on the market. Plus the revolutionary StitchVision Technology -
project stitch patterns and designs directly onto your fabric before you even sew a stitch! It’s a gorgeous sewing
machine with incredible capabilities, and it can be yours - I bought one!
BERNINA’s Gold Anniversary Edition machines are also available! They are absolutely beautiful, come with lots of
bonuses and gifts with purchase, but won’t be around for long. Oops! I did it again - I’m also a Golden Girl! Great
value and incomparable quality - the perfect combination.
Whichever embroidery machine you choose to use, be sure to attend the OESD Events we are hosting in March.
They are the perfect opportunity for all embroidery aficionados to hone their craft.
If you happen to be looking for new quilting blocks or appliqué ideas to try, look no further than our AccuQuilt Go
Cutters. They make everything so much easier at a very reasonable cost.
Between our brand new fabrics, wide range of notions, classes galore, plus our enthusiasm for all things sewing,
it’s going to be a great winter at M Y SEWING ROOM. Thank-you so much for recommending us to your friends,
and be sure to check us out on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
And remember; if you are happy, tell everyone! If you are not, please tell me!
See you in the shop!
Sincerely,
Anne Dale
