Default RCTN Reminder: NY gathering at Stitchery Row Nov. 1

Nov. 1! That's 2 weeks from now! Time sneaks up on you quickly, so don't
forget to include this on your schedule. Bring a project to work on, and
we can caht while we work. There will be no organized lunch, but there
are a lot of restaurants in easy walking distance (Subway is 2 doors
down, for example). We'll have the back room to ourselves, so you can
bring your lunch back to the shop, or have it delivered there.

If you want to place needlework supplies orders for pick up, go to the
website http://www.stitcheryrow.com/ and they'll be happy to reserve
things for you. The shop address is also on the website, and I suggest
using yahoo or Mapquest to find your best directions.

Shop opens at 10 am and closes at 3.

The LQS nearest, Sew Much More (http://sewmuchmore.com ), is open 10 am
to 5pm, so you can always make a run there before or after you hit the
needlework shop. There is another LQS in Vestal, a 20 minute drive, open
the same hourse. SMM is a Viking dealer, and Grandmother's Thimble is a
Bernina dealer (http://www.grandmothersthimble.net )

Reminder, this is in Endicott, NY, which is near Binghamton. Crossposted
to RCTQ for the obvious overlap.

Georg, you are evil, since I am also looking to buy a new sewing machine.....

Want directions to Owego, where there's a Pfaff dealer? That's
Grandmother's Attic, although I am not familiar with their hours. I was
able to notice some lovely flannels before I had to runaway - it's a
recently moved into location, and I can't cope with the construction
smell. Maybe next year I can shop there.

What I really want is for someone to help me decide between Pfaff and Bernina -
I love my 30 year old Necchi workhorse, and the very portable 32 year old
Kenmore someone just gave me, but all the new bells and whistles are
fascinating! I don't want one to do buttonholes or embroidery, though - still
love to do those things by hand, the way my grandmother taught me - just want
to make window treatments and do some free-motion quilting.. Any advice,
anyone?

For me, the choice would come down to a local store that I liked and
trusted, and I could take classes with. I would want a machine that can
lower the feed dogs for the free-motion quilting (which cannot be done
on my Kenmore). It would also be nice to have needle control - needle
up/down, and adjust the position.

What local for you stores carry these machines? Go test drive them. See
what you like best.
