Karla Herrin

We are excited to have Karla Herrin, a Pfaff Creative Consultant (Educator) here on Friday July 29th, 2011.  There will be two Sessions. The Friday morning session is from 9am to 1pm, and the afternoon session is from 2pm to 6pm.  Sign up for either session.  The afternoon session is a repeat of the morning session.

Karla Herrin has designed quilts as well as home décor and garments. She has studied with Jenny Haskins and she has trained in heirloom sewing through Martha Pullen events. Karla has also appeared on sewing television shows and web video productions. She loves to have fun with her sewing and enjoys sharing her knowledge and creativity. With the combination of Sewing Machines, Software and Sergers Karla feels the possibilities are endless. Karla has been to the Loft before and we are excited to have her back again.

Karla Herrin will show you how to use the best stabilizer for the project you are working on.  The event focuses on the variety of stabilizers, and how to use them to get the best results! You don't have to own an embroidery machine, to benefit from this event!  We welcome owners of all brands of sewing machines, as this event will  teach you how to get the best results for your decorative stitches and machine applique just to name a few.  And best of all,  Karla will be doing demos and will show you inspirational samples in her trunk show!  Karla will also introduce you to designing software for your quilting too! 

Pre-registration is required to reserve your seat, Fee $10.  We will have refreshment, door prizes, lots of laughs and just plan old fun! 

Each attendee will receive a free gift bag...........and there will be specials!!  You won't want to miss this event.

Christmas Idea Exchange - Thurday July 21, 2011, 5:30pm to 8:30pm

The year is quickly slipping away, and Christmas is less than six months away.  It's time again for our wonderful Idea Exchange for Christmas.  We have been very busy working behind the scenes, getting ready for our Trunk Show for our annual Christmas Idea Exchange.  It's our favorite time of year to show you what you can make for Christmas, for your wonderful friends and family!  Some quick and easy suggestions that will get you started!  We will also have follow-up classes to really get you in the mood to create and hey it's cool in the shop! 

Of course we have refreshments, door prizes and specials for the evening.  All you need to do is call to reserve your place.  There is no charge, but we do ask that if you confirm you are coming, please show up!! If you find you can't make it,  please call in plenty of time, so someone else can have your spot at this popular event.  Space is limited, and you won't want to miss out!!!

We will close the Pfaff Shop at 4pm, to get set up for our event.  The Quilt Shop will be open too, so if you get here early you can shop upstairs, while we get ready to open the doors around 5:20pm.  Can't make the stairs........then you can get a cup of coffee at the new bakery just up the block, near the CVS pharmacy.  We will start promptly at 6pm with our trunk show.  We start at 5:30pm with a social mixer, where you can catch up with friends, or meet new ones!  Have refreshments.  This year we will have our event in the main Pfaff Shop.....it is cooler, more room, since the sun will be at the back of the building in the early evening.

We have lots to show you...........so we invite you to attend!  We plan on having lots of fun and we know you will toooooo!!!!
