Time is flying by like a freight train! Can you believe it's June, almost half the year has gone by. The old saying, time flies when you are having fun. And we really do at SEW BIZZ. If you are feeling down and don't know what to do with yourself, come in and try a new hobby, or a new pattern. Better yet, why not update your old sewing machine. Did you know we give classes on your new sewing machine for as long as you have that machine? And if you trade up within the first 6 months, you get full credit from your machine and pay only the difference between the retail price of the new machine! So you can't loose, come in and look at the latest machines.

If you noticed the calendar for June you will see it better by going to the website www.sewbizz.net
