Happy New Year Everyone!


It seems that every year someone gets a fantastic present that they may not really know how to use! For our sewing friends this usually means that wonderful new sewing machine. So many features! All those attachments! Lots of adjustments! So much capability! It’s SO shiny!

But – how does it work?

Don’t worry – we can help!

We offer classes in machine sewing that can help you master that new mechanical marvel! You can bring your machine with you and learn how to take advantage of all those bells and whistles!

Give us a call at (518) 695-4867 and lets get started!

Many of the stores are having some great winter sales! While there are some fantastic bargains out there we can all be just a little more “green” if we save some of those “whites”!

Perhaps you already have some beautiful items. Some may be heirlooms or special hand-me-downs from your family. We can help you learn how to repair or alter those items or bring them in and we can take care of them for you. Or use this as a chance to help your children get started on a lifetime of sewing!

Either way, you’ll be doing your part for our planet!

Time to start thinking about your summer activities! A perfect time to enjoy some of our most popular classes and programs for this summer. Check out the Our Current Classes page for all the latest information!

If you are looking for a different program or would like to take advantage of our individual classes, please give us a call at 518-695-4867.

We’d would like to send out a “thank you” to all of my customers! We’ve been in business for almost 9 years now and the majority of our business is from our repeat customers and our referrals from all of you!

As a special value to our repeat customers we’ll give you 10% off on your first order during the month of July (2009) if you simply mention this web posting!

Thank you!

Prom season is fast approaching and some lucky ladies will be winning prizes – for making their own prom dresses!

The Sew Jo-Ann Prom Contest for this year has already started! You can download the entry form at this web link.

Contest entrants have a chance to win cash and prizes with the judges making their decisions based on workmanship, level of detail and originality. According to the contest rules, your fabric must come from their stores.

The design comes from you! At me, myself and I, we can help you work out the details of your design, determine which fabrics might work the best, and give you guidance on creating your pattern, fabric cutting, and of course, sewing your creation together!

The contest ends June 30, 2009 so you should start work now if you want a chance to win! Give us a call at 518-695-4867 to schedule an appointment to look at your future prom dress ideas!
