What’s The Buzz: September Events at Rocky Mountain Sewing and Vacuum

by Cathy Ellsaesser, posted on

Back to school! Those of you with kids at home might be sighing a sign of relief as the little ones head back to school. Maybe now you have a little more free time to yourself. If so, now’s the time to start thinking about making those special Christmas gifts for your family and friends. So, we’ve teed up several September events that we think will help you with that.

Labor Day Sale

Right now is the perfect time to save big on all sewing machines, embroidery machines, quilting machines, vacuums, accessories, furniture, notions and more! The first of our September events is our annual Labor Day sale at each of our store locations, Saturday, August 31, 10am-5pm & Monday, September 2, 10am-6pm.

With store wide savings of up to 70% off, I bet you’ll find just what you’re looking for to start working you those Christmas gifts.

Tech Party aka What’s New

What's New Party announcement

I am as confused as Rob as to what to call our annual party where we show you all the new machines and software that our manufactures have conjured up this year. I like Tech Party, but, then, I’m a tech nerd. It’s also known as What’s New Party, and that certainly is descriptive.

I just know that I think I have attended almost every tech party, and have always come away with some fabulous new machine or software at an incredible deal.

What ever you want to call it, it’s happening soon. Rob will be at all four locations (no, not at all at once, even he’s not that good) along with some of our manufacturer reps to tell you all about the latest and greatest from Brother, Janome, Bernina, PFAFF and others.

Learn about new designs, notions, accessories, machines and more! Extra special discounts and savings will be offered to all attendees. There’s no better time than now to upgrade to the Machine of your Dreams!

Of course, you know Rob, there will be lots of giveaways! Total giveaways over the four days of the event is over $42,000 in value! Come 30 minutes early for some demos from our representatives and earn extra door prize drawing tickets.

As always, the event is free but we would appreciate it if you’d sign up so we make sure we have enough seats and, of course, food! Just click on the location/time you’d like to attend below to register.

Colorado Springs: Wednesday, Sept. 11; 10a – 1p or 3p – 6p
Littleton: Thursday, Sept. 12; 10a – 1p or 3p – 6p
Arvada: Friday, Sept. 13; 10a – 1p or 3p – 6p

Quilting, sewing, embroidery, and crafting all come together for a winter wonderland event! Hope Yoder of Embellish fame brings a party to this special September event late in the month at our Event Center. I am so excited about this event, and can’t wait for you to see some of the wonderful, cutting edge ideas that Hope has on how to “re-purpose, re-cycle, up-scale” clothing and other articles. You’ll also get some great tips and tricks for using the RIGHT stabilizer that will help make your embroidery flawless.

Check out this video for a sneak peek at the projects you’ll be making.

Space is limited, so sign up now. This three day September event, September 26 – 28, costs $199 to learn from the best! Every attendee will receive a gift box with a retail value up to $499 just for attending. We provide all the materials, machines and lunch each day and, of course, lots of snacks.
