I was out in our beautiful bay on one of the many interesting islands. I had the rear experience to share the island with a young soaring eagle.  What made this even more unusual was I was able to get out my camera before it left.

Had this been southern California I would have been sharing the island with a thousand other nature lovers and instead of an eagle it would have been a radio controlled toy.

Our customers have been busy making local quilts that we are selling for them in our store.  These change every week.  These make a great hand made gift that is one of a kind.  This is a wonderful way to support some hard working local sewers.












We have an unusual situation at our store, the Electric Hospital.  Since we sell quilting equipment we have traded in machines for all levels we have quilt frames for the hand quilter to the mid arm quilting machines. 

 It would cost more to purchase the materials to build this since it is only $99.


This is the Tin Lizzie 18 ESP with the Quilt Magician Robot on it.
You can see it on our Electric Hospital web page here. Tin Lizzie ESP


The Empress Quilter is a great 18 " long arm quilting machine with a stitch regulator and a laser for quilting pantographs.  




We are listing some of these on eBay.  This B-Line Long Arm Quilting Frame is at this link on eBay


This eBay auction is for a like new sewing and embroidery machine.  We start these auctions off at  99 cents with no reserve.  That means someone is going to get a great machine at a wonderful price.
Here is the eBay Link.  

I like to see local customers get the great deals as we can save them shipping and coach them how to set up and  use the new equipment.  We even have a stitch regulator on eBay for a long arm sewing machine and quilt frame.  

I get customers from all over the world look at my You Tube videos (234,148+ views.)  A gentleman came in this week from Cottage Grove to meet us my face was red from all the wonderful things he was saying about our quirky little videos.  He drove down just to meet us.  If you want to see what we are up to here are some links.

I should quickly mention we have sewing instructor, Gail Kellogg, coming next week.  If you would like to meet a fantastic sewer trained on the newest Husqvarna Viking equipment sign up for her classes.  This is the link to read more about Gail.
