Re: 6 needle machines
Carol Harhai
Pam and Mary,
I didn't buy my Brother machines from my "local" dealer because he charges top buck for everything in his store. He started the I don't have to service it because you didn't buy it here speech - so I started the I will be back after I call the Attorney General's office (of my state) every Senator and every Rep. We worked out a comprimise but I'm probably getting ripped off - How can I comparison shop? Brother is horrible with this. Carol |
Applique on sweatshirts
kayladog80003
I hope somebody can help me with this. I received some machine
applique designs for Christmas and would like to put them on a couple of sweatshirts. I've never hooped a sweatshirt, always have just used spray adhesive to hold it onto the stabilizer. Because with applique you have to remove the hoope and cut how do you do that with a sweatshirt? Please help. Thanks, Gayle |

deco 340 and explorations classic
carol_keup
I hate to be such a dummy but in the deco 340, it has articles to
choose from to work with. Just my luck, the preinstalled patterns have nothing I want except t shirt. Can anyone tell me, how do you addto articles? I have tried and tried and failed. I got 1 skirt downloaded and (oh yes, I forgot to tell you, I got explorations classic) I can not get the skirt into explorations. Thanks, Carol |

Re: Recent - Wal-Mart Newz
They must have made that decision after planning the new Super Walmart in The Villages FL. The store has notions but NO Fabric. That doesn't make sense to me. There is a department called Celebration which consist of party supplies. Boy I buy a lot of those supplies. I can't tell you how many different clubs we have that use fabric of some kind.
I'll bet they didn't do away with their baseball and golf merchandise two other big sports in The Villages. Well I for one will not buy any party supplies from Walmart.

Re: Recent - Wal-Mart Newz

Here's the official news from Wall Street Journal:
WAL-MART AIMS TO FURTHER TAILOR STORES TO LOCALES By Kris Hudson January 23, 2007; Page A2 Wal-Mart Stores Inc., in an ongoing effort to tailor its merchandise to the taste of each store's clientele, this year will stop selling cut fabric in some of its stores in favor of offering crafts and party-planning supplies. Most of the new stores Wal-Mart opens this year and those it remodels will forgo fabrics to instead feature craft-and-celebration centers offering merchandise for "crafts and party-planning needs along with information on current trends and new ideas in the area of life's celebrations," such as weddings and birthdays, Wal-Mart spokeswoman Tara Raddohl said. Wal-Mart intends to open as many as 280 U.S. supercenters and discount stores this year and remodel several hundred more. The switch also will affect a "small number" of Wal-Mart's existing stores, but Ms. Raddohl declined to quantify the amount. Wal-Mart's fabric departments, which offer bolts of cloth that are cut to order by store employees, harken back to the Bentonville, Ark., retailer's roots serving primarily rural shoppers with tight budgets. But Wal-Mart now operates roughly 4,000 U.S. stores, with most of its new stores opening in urban and suburban locales. In a bid to squeeze more sales out of those stores, Wal-Mart is culling slow-selling departments from some in favor of merchandise that might better entice more affluent shoppers or better resonate with local tastes. Last year, Wal-Mart discontinued firearm sales at roughly 1,000 stores due to insufficient demand. This year, it intends to pare the number of stores at which it offers live fish in its pet departments, though the retailer declines to divulge a number of stores slated for the change. Bill Dreher, a Deutsche Bank Securities analyst, said Wal-Mart likely is moving away from fabrics because the department doesn't lure significant traffic into its stores and doesn't yield the same margins as other merchandise. Also, cut fabric and pet fish require employees to retrieve the merchandise for customers. "The fabric department takes up a lot of space in the stores," Mr. Dreher said. "Making your own clothes is a dying skill. And when Wal-Mart rolled these stores out 40 years ago, it made a lot of sense. But now people might [instead] decorate around the house." Wal-Mart declined to divulge its annual sales in fabrics. The department is part of its soft-goods and apparel business, which accounted for 15% of its $312.4 billion in sales in 2005, the most recent year it has reported. The department faces challenges, including liquidating trendy apparel from an overly aggressive fashion program and weathering remodelings of apparel and home-decor sections in several hundred stores |
Re: PED Basic
If I have designs on my card I can read what is on it. This comes in handy if I forget and don't want to erase something. I just go to the select file button like I am going to transfer, and all the way at the top of the list is the card to click on. It reads it and shows me what is there.

My manager told me it would go completely. and to get on the band wagon and call the company and write and tell them you would shop any where but there. Joann's, on line, and Hancock's. He was a great help, and he said his mother and grandmother sew and quilt so he felt our pain and was trying to help us. sherry in ks

It appears they are trying to cut out the ladies that do the fabric cutting. Some of the bigger stores here in Phoenix will go fast, but the little store we go to on 59 and Bill is going to be rebuilding so they will be one of the last hold outs until the store is redone. It is very sad to see them to away with fabric Not understanding!!!! |

Raggedy Ann
Hi Everybody,
This group is always so helpful and informative!! I have a couple of questions. A lady I work with wants me to make her a Raggedy Ann quilt for her. It will be a baby quilt. First.... She says she would like a large panel with maybe a Raggedy Ann and Andy sitting back to back and applique'd or just a Rag. Ann.. and then squares or embroidery around the large panel. My first question is does anyone know where I can find a pattern for this applique and also some embroidery for the dolls. My second question is how much should I charge her???? I have no idea. Thank you for your help in this. Kim |
