Creative Empowerment!

The results of exercising your creativity go far beyond the beautiful finished product. The exercise of imagining, reflecting, problem-solving, and learning as we sew spills over to the rest of our lives, freeing us to approach new or difficult situations with innovative solutions.

With that in mind, we’ve assembled an empowering schedule of clubs, classes, and events for you. Start with Open House, Friday, September 12 through Sunday, September 14, for an overview, and make plans to learn new skills with new instructors like clothing designer Marla Kazell and award-winning quilter Ronda Kae Beyer.

We have developed three really exciting new clubs! Scrap Therapy offers you fun and innovative ways to finally conquer your stash. The Early Bird Club will awaken you to the coolest new tools and techniques with demonstrations and special guests. And Christmas Club is the place to create thoughtful, personal gifts for everyone on your holiday list....this is the year to stay out of the mall and stitch!

Don’t forget the fun of Northwest Quilting Expo in September! Visit A Common Thread in two booths featuring everything new and exciting in quilting and sewing.

Best of all, we’re thrilled to offer the new Bernina 830, and a truly revolutionary way to create! Call us now to hold a spot in your "Date with 8" to learn more about this amazing machine!

So empower yourself! Whether it’s in the classroom, the Expo Center, or just dropping by the store to see all that’s new, join us for the best in stitching and creative empowerment this fall!
