Summer is here…hooray!
Did you notice the “Volume 18” at the top of this page? Yes-The Bobbin Case is starting its 18th year! Looking back-my…how the machines have changed! When I opened The Bobbin Case little did I know how “hi-tech” sewing would become! BERNINA’S 8 Series machines are electronic marvels-no way would I have predicted that such machines would ever exist! Many of our customers did not even use a computer in 1993 and now, they are bringing in their laptops to explore the great features of the BERNINA Embroidery Software.
Time to Celebrate! Saturday, July 24, 2010 is the date of our 17th Anniversary Sale! Be sure to mark that on your calendar! Traditionally just about everything in the store is “on sale” for our anniversary sale and this year will not be an exception. Our anniversary sale is later than usual as BERNINA University is being held July 9-12 in Orlando. July is a busy month for us as Barb and I will be attending “BU” while Ann is off to Hawaii to visit her son Jeff and his family. Pat, Tina and Shirley will be “holding down the fort” while we are away. You may want to make the point of stopping in to see them as they may offer some surprise “boss is away” specials!
As I mentioned, Barb and I will be attending BERNINA’S annual convention (BU) in Orlando-probably about the time you are receiving this newsletter. We will be getting our first look at the new 3 Series BERNINA machines (models 330, 350PE and 380) and both of us will be taking a class where we will be using them. The 3 Series will be replacing the 230 and 240 models and those are now “on clearance”. Thus, now is a great time to get your hands on a terrific “powerful, little” machine at a greatly reduced price.
When you think of “3 Series” what do you think of? (That is, in addition to BERNINA’S new 3 Series machines.) How about the “3 series” of BMWs? BERNINA of AMERICA will be giving away a BMW 328i to some lucky person. How would you like the chance to win it? In order to have your name included in the drawing for this BMW all you have to do is stop by The Bobbin Case and take our “3 series” for a test drive! The dates of the promotion are August 9-23, 2010. In addition to the car, there will be 20 second prizes consisting of $300 Bernina Gift Certificates.
I have added a place for your email address on the class registration form. This will make it easy for us to contact you with any pertinent class information. Once again-I urge you to sign up to receive the newsletter via email if you have not already done so.
Happy Sewing,
Linda
