Helpful Fall Check Up Tips!
 
Fall has arrived and we want to remind you to change the belts in your vacuums and bring them in for their fall check up for cleaning and tune ups.  Keeping your vac in good working order is a must for those with allergies.  Leaf molds and dust accumulate with the windows opening up for the cooler weather. 
 
Sewing machines need their yearly cleanining, tune up, and oiling before the busy rush of the season as well.
 
Also important, don't forget to change the batteries in your smoke alarms this month.

Dear Friends,
 
 Happy Fall!  The leaves will soon be starting to turn, and we will be turning our thoughts toward the coming Holiday seasons and all the festivities with family and friends.  School is back in full swing and it gives moms and grandmas a little extra time to work on those unfinished projects.  Or, to start new ones for those cherished Christmas presents.
 
Come in and check out our assorted Halloween fabrics, as well as the other Holiday lines.  All fabric will will be on special this month, October 7th.  Just bring in a copy of your October Newsletter and received $1 off any cut of 1 yard or more on all fabrics including the already on sale Holiday selections.
 
We look forward to seeing you soon.
 
Sincerely,
Dorothy
