My experience at Handi Quilter

I am so excited to share with all of my Cotton Shop friends about my amazing last three days. I was given the opportunity to go and receive training from the Handi Quilters Educators on their awesome long arm quilting machines. I received so much knowledge about the company , and their products. I was able to view the assembly process, receive hands on training on all of their machines, was shown how to set up and install the Prostitcher.


As they have gone through and developed these machines and products, their whole state of mind was what the quilter wants, needs and can we put it all together for a good price without scrimping on the quality. Well, I can tell you I feel they have done just that.

The education retreats for consumers and reps is just amazing. The educators are very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. Which is a plus when you are just learning for the first time. My knowledge of these machines was very limited and therefore I was very intimidated by them. I felt that I was not capable of using them. After my training I found out that anybody can use a Handi Quilter. It takes some education and classes but it is the most exciting thing to see the amazing things that you, yourself can design, create and have a little piece of you to give to those you love and have it treasured for a lifetime. If that doesn’t make you feel good I don’t know what does.

If you are interested about any of the Handi Quilter products come on in and talk to us about them. We are working on some great things at our stores to help and educate those that would like to experience and own one of these awesome machines.

Hey everybody, here we go again with another fun contest. Here is what you need to do, create, design or just make something fun or maybe you already have something you have made and are so proud of. You then are going to take pictures and send them to me Jen at jrbergy@msn.com. I will have a team of gals that will go through these fun pictures and we will pick a winner.
What  will I win, they say? You will win a Olfa cutting set, which includes mat, rotary cutter and a ruler. Values at about $60.00 retail. Also there will be gift certificates that will be given out also.
We will post the winner and we will also do a slide show of all the great projects that were sent over. So here are the rules.
* It can be anything that has some kind of sewing involved.
*If you use fabric from The Cotton Shop this will also give you points.
Thats it one rule, so take it and run. I am so excited to see everybody's ideas.
The deadline to get your pictures over is April 5th.
Since March is National Craft month we thought it would be a great time for everybody to show off their stuff.
Here is a example of something I did that I think is so cute. All fabric used is from The Cotton Shop. Even the bows that are in her hair are from the bulk ribbon at The Cotton Shop.
So have FUN!!! HAPPY DAY!!
