So, we have some more pics to share with you……..more dealer’s stores we visited on our sewing travels around our beautiful country.
Sew & Save in Stratford, Ontario. We had our Janome events at a local hotel but this is the store in this charmingly quaint city.

The Purple Party at Stratford, Ontario for Sew & Save Sewing Center: this was the largest one to date with over 80 people attending the event held at The Parlour Inn.

Shirley at Ultimate Sewing Center in Oshawa, Ontario hosted her Master Class and Purple Party at a local hotel. Before I left town the next day, I popped into her store to see all she had to offer….which was a lot!
Shirley (right) shows one of the embroidered quilts she has on display in her store: Ultimate Sewing Center, Oshawa
LOTS of expertise, sewing machines and sewing supplies are offered at this Janome store: Ultimate Sewing Center, Oshawa, Ontario
Another great sample at Ultimate Sewing Center in Oshawa: this one shows clearly just how good Janome Acufil quilting looks.
We had a request for a pic of the whole quilt so I have added it here. Apologies that it is a little blurry.
Watch this spot….we will spotlight more dealers & their stores…..as seen on our travels around Canada.

Hi Sandy,
Will see what I can do and add a pic of the whole quilt. I vaguely remember that pic was blurred so I did not use it.

Wish I had a friendly owned, well stocked and knowledgeable Janome dealer in my area. Your pics look wonderful & fun to me.
Thanks for all your help these past years.

I really enjoyed attending the Purple Party hosted by Mark from Stratford’s Sew & Save Centre. It was wonderful to be inspired by all the amazing samples you shared and to gather with so many other Janome-loving quilters and sewists. I am so grateful to have Sew & Save five minutes away and thankful that Mark, Dempsey, and Karen are always there to help and advise. I love, love, love my Horizon, my 3160, my 1600P, and 350e but that never stops me from wanting ALL the new and gorgeous machines Mark has to offer! I know we are very lucky to have such great service from Sew & Save and they are always there when I need something! Thanks for coming so far to visit us and know that we in Stratford love Janome AND Sew & Save!!!

Hi Angie,
It was my pleasure. It is wonderful to hear that Mark & his staff are doing such a great job. And we love that you are such a loyal Janome customer. I have definitely put Stratford on my list of places to revisit…..I thought it was just lovely.

Thank YOU, Liz and come back any time! For a “small town” we have a lot to offer. I know we are totally spoiled with Mark as our guy (not everyone has their own ‘Mark’). I am so proud to own my machines and do not taken them for granted. I’m reminded of their quality every time I sew. Merry Christmas to you all! My hubby is a BC native so I’m sure it is beautiful there for the holidays!
