Educator News: Marilyn York  

Dear All Brands family,  

I hope that your Independence Day celebrations were enjoyable.  We started ours early with a fabulous open house last weekend, where many beautiful Designer Diamonds went home with their new owners.  The excitement was palpable, as we showcased some of the awesome features on the machine, including using the Design Shaping function to create AUTOMATIC borders using ANY sewing machine stitch or embroidery design.  We can form the borders as circles, squares or other additional shapes.  It’s AMAZING and it’s all done in a matter of seconds.  

This Design shaping also applies to our LETTERING, so ,’the skies the limit’ on designing beautiful lettering on multiple baselines in our Diamond machines.  Can you tell I’m more than excited???  Sleeping is becoming secondary to my imagination, as it ‘creates’  while I try to ‘slumber’.    This machine is truly the most  beautiful and incredible machine I’ve ever sewn on, and  I’ve sewn on many machines.  It is quiet, yet powerful  and with the 65 lights built in, is capable of allowing me to sew by ‘candlelight and a little glass of _____’gg.  

With the unbelievable number of Diamonds that went to new homes on Saturday and additional days this week, we now have some gorgeous Designer SE machines that  are being prepared for adoption, will become “CERTIFIED, PRE OWNED” machines that will include a full factory warranty from Husqvarna Viking.  If you have been wanting to move up to a more advanced sewing and embroidery machine, now is the time.  As always, you will receive your Machine Guide Classes ($200 value on Designers and $300 value for Diamonds ) for as long as you own your machine. 

Be looking forward to some very exciting events scheduled for this coming fall.   Mark off on your calendar the following dates as you won’t want to miss out!  

Thursday October 2nd  and Friday October 3rd Judy Kessinger will be BACK to do hands on TOP and JACKET fit classes. 

Thursday October 23rd EVENING 6:30 to 9:00, Friday October 24 10-4 and Saturday October 25 10-4, Martha Sherrif from OESD will be here to present a very exciting EXPLORATIONS software seminar.  Students will be provided with program and dongles during the class.   Most of you are familiar with OESD  thru their gorgeous designs.  You may not realize that they also have a very unique , Project Based  software program that is really fun and easy to use. 

Finally, mark off  Wednesday, February 18 and Thursday February 19 for a  “Simply Teach Me” 4D Software Retreat with the dynamic  duo Diana Cedolia and Kothy Hafersat, creators of the outstanding “Simply Teach Me Series” DVD’s.  This is a very rare opportunity to have both of these educators together under one roof for a big event like this. SO—Talk to your bosses now and schedule those days OFF!  

More details will follow in the weeks ahead regarding times and locations.  

Have a FABULOUS week !
