Baby Lock’s Newest Jewel

A few weeks ago, Baby Lock announced the introduction of the Jewel, the top-of-the-line addition to the Quilter’s Dream Series of machines.  Unlike any other household model, the Jewel offers an 18″ throat, to give the serious home quilter the space to create breathtaking professional-looking quilting in their own home sewing room!  This machine, made [...]

The Truck Stops Here!

Every day this week, we’ve had a truck deliver goodies to the store.  Tomorrow will be an even bigger day, when some of our new machines and our Embroidery Avenue computer arrive.  It’ll take us a while to sift through all of the boxes, but we’ve got new products for “In the Hoop Projects” from [...]

Fall in Love

The phone’s been ringing off the hook and customers have been streaming in for the past 2 days since my return from St. Louis.  I’ve had a few minutes to get (slightly) organized and thought I’d share some more tidbits with you.
Baby Lock’s new top-of-the-line sewing & embroidery combination machine, Ellisimo, is scheduled to begin [...]

Behind the Scenes

I really tried to photograph some great pictures on opening night at Baby Lock Tech, but I’m afraid I was unable to capture everything.  Lucky for you, I’ve found a little video clip of opening night with Steve Jeffrey introducing our fabulous new Ellisimo and our new Jewel.  It isn’t exactly like being there, but [...]

OHMYGOSH

I can’t believe the incredible new products we’ll be introducing this fall at Sew Much More!  I’ve been experiencing sensory overload.  Our new Jewel quilter is truly a jewel…this is a machine that will be virtually trouble-free (although we’re qualified to do service, if necessary).  Your creativity in quilting will not be suppressed because you’ll [...]

Developing a Reputation

I think I’ve got a reputation at Baby Lock Tech.  I have been “oooh-ing” and “aaah-ing” all day long!  The Ellisimo is remarkable and if you’re looking for a top-end machine, this is the one to buy!  I cannot describe how that needle cam works–you have to see it to believe it.  When you’re hemming [...]

Busy Days

It’s been so busy at the store recently I haven’t had time to post.  The Robison-Anton polyester embroidery thread display is fully stocked now, with the entire collection of 450 colors!  We had to do some rearranging of furniture!  There’ll be more furniture moving when we get back next week from Baby Lock Tech.  It’ll [...]

Catalog It!

I’m always a sucker for new software, so I’ll admit that I was really interested in the newest software from Amazing Designs, Catalog It! I’ve used a few other cataloging programs over the past 12 years, but this one really got me interested, advertising that it “automatically” sorted your designs.  Just how could it do [...]
