We Have a Secret!
 
Rhonda Pierce, Mrkt Drct. Euro Notions with Janet Pray, Pres. ASE.

We have a secret, and you are the first to know because of your relationship with the American Sewing Expo!   

 

Coming soon to your local sewing shops you will find color coded SCHMETZ home sewing needles. That's right!  SCHMETZ needles with color bands to identify the needle type and size. The top band identifies the needle type, while the lower band identifies the size.  The SCHMETZ Universal needle will have a single band of color to indicate size. To the right is the chart for you to print out and post in your sewing room.  I know secrets are sometimes hard to keep, but feel free to share this with your sewing friends. This news is just too good!

Another secret... at the beginning of the new year, SCHMETZneedles.com is giving away beautiful black quilted SCHMETZ tote bags filled with sewing goodies. Rhonda Pierce, Marketing Director, www.SCHMETZneedles.com  is cleaning out her office stash of books, patterns, fat quarters, all sorts of sewing goodies and a few needles too. Rhonda has amassed quite a few samples from all the wholesale and consumer shows attended over the years and needs to make room for new samples. In a couple weeks the announcement will be made on Facebook at www.facebook.com/schmetzneedles for this January 2014 give-away, or go to  www.SCHMETZneedles.com and sign-up for the SCHMETZneedles newsletter for timely details. 

 

     

Inspired to SEW  

Rhonda loves talking to sewing enthusiasts and had a ball as the hostess of the Social Media Lounge at our American Sewing Expo.  She posted 30 "Inspired to Sew" videos and dozens of pics from the Social Media Lounge at  www.SCHMETZneedles.com.  Take a look!  You may find a pic of yourself or may find someone else inspires you to sew.

There's an App for That?
 

There's an App for that!  The SCHMETZneedle App makes needle selection so easy.  Just click one of 80 fabrics and a needle type will be suggested.  See the SCHMETZneedles App in action in a video posted November 12, 2013 at http://www.schmetzneedles.com/blog/
