Going Above & Beyond for You!
Thornton & Centennial Summer 2016
It really is a Sweet ‘16 It seems like only yesterday that I was writing about the start of the New Year and how excited we were to be starting 2016. All of the sud-
den it’s the middle of the year and we are wondering where the time went. 2016 has been another whirl wind so far. We have had a busy
first quarter with lots more fun stuff to come. Kate and I were planning this newsletter, and we couldn’t believe how many events we had
on the schedule over the next 4 months. We start the quarter off with 2 big events in May. We are very proud to bring you Trevor
Conquergood in the first week of May. Trevor is the national spokesman for the Floriani software brand and he brings to us a wealth of
knowledge and a vibrant personality that will be sure to lead to a seminar that you won’t want to miss. Most of you have seen him in his
training and education videos and you know what I am talking about. Right after Trevor leaves us, our sewing friend Joan Freidrich is
coming to town to do a 3 day serger workshop that will get you more knowledge on your serger than you will know what to do with. You
will cover all facets of your overlock and coverlock machines from a sewing expert who has been seen on Nancy Zieman, Martha’s sewing
room, and Eleanor Burns. She has a fun and magnetic personality and brings a lot of fun to this boot camp.
In June we have another very special guest in store for you. Nicci Brazzell brings her talents to Above & Beyond for a two day embroidery
workshop that will have you drooling over the incredible features of the Destiny sewing machine. This is Nicci’s first trip to our stores, but
she comes highly recommended and we know you are going to love her presentation. But wait, there is more!!! In July we have two more
events planned that you won’t want to miss. We have established a new tradition of our second Anita Goodesign hands-on Christmas in
July extravaganza. These seminars are always our most popular events of the year and this year will be no different. The following week,
we will be bringing in nationally renowned long arm quilter Kay Capps-Cross in for a two day long arm workshop. Kay has written books
and is considered an industry leader in the art of long arming. Even if you don’t own a long arm machine, you won’t want to miss Kay’s
presentation.
As you can see, we have more going on than any other sewing dealer in the Rocky Mountain region and we pride ourselves in being your
educational resource for all of your sewing needs. Whether you own a Babylock or not, we invite you to join our family and learn what it
truly feels like to receive the support and education that you deserve for the greatest hobby in the world. Kate and I understand that it is
you that makes our business go and we look forward to providing you with all of your sewing needs. Thank you for your continued sup-
port and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Going Above & Beyond for you!
Patrick and Kate
