SEW BIZ Inc. Where Sewing is Exciting! SEW BIZ Inc.

Viking Sewing Center 3722 S. Western Ave. Marion, IN 46953

Every Day is Christmas! Did you know SEW BIZ has Christmas fabric, patterns and samples displayed year ‘round? You can take advantage of this and prepare for the Holidays through-out the year. This makes your Christmas sewing and crafting a little easier. You can also sign up on our Wish List year ‘round so that your family and friends will know what to get you for any special occasion.

I would like to remind everyone that supplies for our classes are to be purchased at SEW BIZ. In order to keep from increasing our class fees, it is important that the supplies for the classes be purchased here. Many shops charge double and more

what our class fees are and we intend to keep our fees at the current rate; however, we need your support re-garding supply purchases. Thank you !

Look over the class list, stop in to see the projects or view them on the internet at www.sewbizmarion.com. As always, call if you have questions. To avoid disap-

pointment, register early. Many times supplies need to be purchased in ad-vance of class and there may also be homework.

We have new fabrics arriving weekly. These are some of the fabrics that have recently made our shop their home.

What’s NEW! Reviews Notion Review Twister Pinwheel by Country Schoolhouse Quilt Shop is a new acrylic template to make pinwheels fast, fun and easy. It comes in 2 sizes and there is a book avail-able with a variety of project ideas. It’s a fun “twist” on a traditional block.

Dual Angle Quick Easy Mitered Binding Tool is the latest tool from Donelle here at Sew Biz. This tool works like the original Quick Easy Mitered Binding Tool, but is for corners which are not 90˚ angles. The popular octagonal table mats and tapered end runners can be finished beautifully with this great tool. No stress, no guesswork – just great results!

Pattern Review Knotty Baskets by Aunties Two Patterns is a unique accessory that will add a decorative touch to any room. These big, beautiful fabric baskets will hold your tow-els, socks and scarves, magazines, yarn, plants – or whatever else you can think of! Woven fabric sides and a row of knots make this a real show-stopper!

Make your own flip-flops to match any outfit with Bown Go Flip-Flops or Classic Flip-Flops by Aunties Two Patterns. Flip-Flops are extremely popular and these great patterns make them unique and special. With two differ-ent styles to choose from, you can trans-form new or used flip-flops into a great fashion accessory.

*************************************** REMINDER: The 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge continues through December 31, 2010. Go to our website for complete details.

Product Review Texture Magic from Superior Threads magically tex-turizes fabric using only a steam iron! Just stitch, steam, and watch the magic as the fabric shrinks 30% in all directions. Fun to do and a great way to add interest to a variety of projects. You will love it!

Grandma’s Secret Spot Remover is biodegradable, non-toxic, and doesn’t contain chlorine. Just a drop is all it takes to remove oil, grease, paint, make-up, grass, ink, blood, tar, fabric bleed, coffee, etc, etc, etc. It is safe for most fabrics and works great! Who knows better than Grandma?

Book Review Runners, Etc. by Gathering Friends is not your typical “one size fits all” runner book. It has many ideas to fit the size you need in rectangular, octagonal or

tapered end table toppers. Full color pictures inspire creativity for 12 different seasonal or everyday pro-jects.

Amy Butler’s In Stitches contains over 25 simple and stylish sewing projects for the home and for per-sonal accessories. Her fresh, modern style is evi-dent in charming projects from a cozy duvet cover to chic placemats, a luxurious sleeping mask and much more. All skill levels – even beginners – will achieve beautiful results with the easy-to-follow illustrated instructions.
