Clay's Corner
Hello. This month I would like to introduce to you "The Worlds Best Stain Remover."
About 15 years ago while at a trade show in Las Vegas we stumbled upon a big Italian man promoting his new stain remover. His name was Joe Campanelli. He was giving demonstrations on this stain remover. It was incredible! He explained all about the product and why it worked so well. I was hooked. We placed an order and have been selling his stain remover ever since. During October, come in and ask for a demo of Joe C. Stain Remover and get a 20% discount on either a gallon or quart. You'll be amazed. I promise!

 

Dear Friends,

Don't you just  enjoy this weather and the leaves just starting to turn .  The kids are full of talk of costumes and getting ready for Halloween.  Parents are looking forward to taking the little ones out trick or treating. The kids can't wait to get there hands on all that candy.    Grandparents just want to see how cute the kids will look in there costumes.  This is the time to start getting creative and make those fun, cute little costumes for them.  

This is a good time to bring that sewing machine in for a quick clean and service.   Remember that we service almost all machines. 

Enjoy your fall season
Sincerely,
Dorothy

DOROTHY"S SEWING TIP 
 
When sewing on any machine it is important to remember that the needle is going to dull and therefore needs to be changed. (Not just when it breaks)  Some indicatiors that it is time to change that needle are:
1 When thread keeps breaking
2 Stitches are making loops
3 You hear a noise as the needle penetrates the fabric.
 
It is best to take your machine make and model number with you when going to purchase new needles.
