David Nutt hosts a Janome Horizon event!

I had a busy day this week at David Nutts Sewing Machines in Bloxwich. Two full workshops of ladies who wanted to try the new Janome Horizon before they buy! I think some husbands are going to get a lot of sweet talking too over the next few days, and a few ladies are hoping Santa will bring will make this their Christmas gift! All the ladies had a wonderful time, and I think they will be making several book covers each to give away for Christmas presents.

The Acufeed on the Janome Horizon machine is fantastic for stitching over uneven and bulky seams, and top stitched the book cover below...no problem.

And look at the beautiful stitches, sewn with the Janome Border Guide Foot... no wonder the ladies couldn't resist wanting one for Christmas!

David Nutt hosts various sewing, dressmaking and free machine workshops in his classroom above the shop.

He is starting a new Sewing Club in the new year, with his regular tutor Marie Breslin. This club will meet the first and third Thursday of every month and the first Saturday of every month. You can bring your own project and work at your own pace, and Marie will be on hand to help. Places are limited to four people, so book early to avoid disappointment.

For more information, please see David's website or Maria Breslin 's website.

Greenpark Quilting Group checks out the Janome Horizon with N J Sewing Machines

On my last day of my Scotland trip, I visited the Greenpark Quilters' Guild Group in Polmont, near Falkirk. Richard, the local Janome dealer, N J Sewing Machines, Brighton, works closely with the quilting group and is always on hand to help with their sewing needs. All the ladies had a lovely time making the Horizon Test Drive project and trying all the wonderful features of the machine.

We even had a birthday girl in the group... but unfortunately... not enough cake for everyone!

The Horizon days are a great time for meeting real sewers and quilters, and no better place for getting feedback on the machine... check out our website and see if there is an event near you!
