💔 A little stitching in honor of Dolly today.

Like so many of you, we were saddened to hear about the passing of Dolly Parton. She was one of those people who seemed to bring a little more color, kindness and sparkle to the world.

Designs by JuJu has shared this sweet FREE “Pour Yourself a Cup of Ambition” Mug Rug design, and we thought our embroidery friends might want to stitch one in her honor. ☕✨

A cup of ambition, a little fabric, some thread — and maybe a Dolly playlist playing in the sewing room. 💕

BIG Janome news — this one is headed to Shawn’s Sewing Center! Come October.

We got to see the HD9QC Professional at our recent Janome meeting, and fell in love with it.

We are excited to welcome the NEW Janome HD9QC Professional to the shop, and if you love serious straight-stitch sewing, quilting, bags or working with heavier fabrics, you’ll want to see this one in action.

This machine is all about POWER + PRECISION:

• Up to 1,650 stitches per minute
• Heavy-duty painted aluminum construction
• Floating Function for greater control over your fabric
• Drop feed for free-motion quilting
• Industrial-style rotary hook with a larger bobbin
• Heavy-weight thread guide
• Up to 11 lbs. of presser-foot pressure
• Automatic thread cutter with quieter operation
• Independent bobbin-winding motor
• Knee lifter
• Extra-wide extension table
• Even-feed, ¼" seam, ditch quilting and free-motion feet included

And yes…this is a straight-stitch machine. It knows exactly what its job is, and apparently it intends to do it very, very fast.

At 1,650 stitches per minute, you might want to hold onto your quilt.

Happy Tuesday from Shawn’s Sewing Center!

It’s been a busy start to the week! Our Laura Jacket ladies were back for Class #2, and just look at these jackets coming together. So many different fabric choices and personalities in one pattern—we love seeing them finished!

And while they’ve been sewing, Fall has started sneaking into the shop! New fabrics are arriving with those warm golds, rusty oranges, rich browns and cozy blues that make us ready for some fall sewing.

Classes, new fabric and lots of creativity happening around here… just the way we like it!

Stop in and see what’s new! 🍂🧵✂️

Happy Saturday ✨✨The wait is over… our first Aveneer Upgrade Kits are here!

We have FOUR kits ready to go, so it was time to find out who gets theirs first!

We decided to make it fair—and a little more fun—by doing a random drawing from everyone who pre-purchased their upgrade at our Tech Party.

Watch the video to see if YOUR name was one of the first four drawn!

Don’t worry if you weren’t picked this round—more kits are on the way, and we’ll keep drawing as they arrive.

Congratulations to our first four Aveneer owners—it’s officially UPGRADE TIME!
