They, too, make fine gifts or are useful for organizing your supplies to be well prepared for class. Remember that Basic Supply List? If not, time to dust it off so you have at your fingertips just what you need each time.

All during August, the pre-sale of Premier+2™ continues. It is a great opportunity to get into the 21st century with the latest embroidery software. Whether upgrading or starting, 20% off!!! It does require payment in full, but then you will get the download a month early and 100 free designs to download right away!

It is August and in this area, it means Back to School! It is also good to keep at the Christmas sewing. One person told her husband she has a great start on their gifts from the classes taken during the summer. She is pleased not to feel rushed, so keep up the good works everyone!

There are several bag classes this month; some repeats, some new.

The Pfaff creative icon™ pre-sale is different. It requires a check which is held until after you have an opportunity to actually see the new top-of-the-line embroidery/sewing machine. The advantage of signing up early is the package of “goodies” valued at $2,500 you will receive by doing so.

Enjoy and know you are SEW appreciated for including Sew What’s New in your sewing life.
