  • Sewing Machines and Sergers
    Welcome To Janome Institute 2011- Your Education Connection September 3 7, at The Marriott World Center Resort In Orlando i Expand Your Horizons j How about some good news, for a change? The economic recovery has been a mixed bag for the sewing industry. Customers are buying... but they’re also holding onto their purse strings a little more tightly. They’re taking longer to make that big machine purchase. But, we’ve clearly seen, when they’re excited about a machine, they will gladly make the purchase. And that’s good news. Because at Janome Institute 2011 we’re going to unveil a machine that will cause your customers to be very excited. This top-of-the-line machine is going to redefine Janome sewing the way we did with the MC8000, MC10000, and MC11000. And it’s going to cause quite a stir among your customers. Believe me, people you’ve never seen before are going to stop by your store just to see it in person. You better have your demo ready, because you’ll be doing it a lot. (It wouldn’t be a bad idea, either, to order some extra cash register tape.) On Opening Night, Saturday, September 3rd, this machine will be revealed for the first time ever to attendees of Janome Institute 2011 in Orlando. You’re going to want to be one of them. Because starting the next day, you’ll get to try out the new machine and get the sales training and product knowledge you need to become a certified dealer.

  • Hand Woven Biscornu Pincushion for MAFA 2015 Side View of 8 Sided
    Hand Woven Biscornu Pincushion for MAFA 2015 Side view of 8 sided pincushion (Biscornu) Have Fun! This particular shape is called a biscornu, meaning "irregular, quirky, complicated, bizarre". And quirky it is... Originally, they were made with linen or other embroidered fabrics. The trick to this pincushion is that the two squares are sewn together, not directly on top of each other as usual, but with a relative 45 degrees rotation. That's it! Sounds easy enough, right? Here is a link to see a good video of the sewing process: A simple biscornu cushion for you to sew by Debbie Shore http://youtu.be/l79t_Q1NJiA Instructions: First: Cut 2 squares 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"of handwoven fabric (matching fabric or contrasting fabrics. Be creative!). Stabilize handwoven fabrics with fusible interfacing if necessary. Use 1/4" seam allowances throughout this project. 1. fold each square in half lengthwise and widthwise and finger press, then make a small clip or notch at the edges to mark the half-way point on each edge 2. With right sides together, place one square on top of the other so that the top square’s side edge is positioned 1/4″ to the left of the half-way mark on the top edge of the lower square. Make sure the parallel raw edges are aligned. 3. Using a 1/4″ seam allowance, begin stitching at the half-way point of the lower square, moving towards the corner. Stop 1/4″ before you reach the corner of the lower square. 4. Here comes the tricky part.
