Newsletter Signup

We love Thursdays! Why? That is when our emails are automatically sent out!

These emails are independent of each other, so if you only want to know about classes, then only check that box.
Except for my blog, the other three are automated and routinely go out on time!

If you have "unsubscribed" from any of these automated emails in the past, this is where you can sign back up for them. Unfortunately, we are not able to bypass and do the "re" subscribing for you. (Absolutely no judgment here! I know what it is like to have a really full inbox and ya just wanna trim it down! But we would be super happy if you resubscribe once your inbox is manageable again.) Keep reading to find out how to re-subsrcibe to our Constant Contact managed blog/email newsletters.

1st Thursday: New Products - what came in last month that is new (or at least new to our store)
3rd Thursday: Upcoming Classes
4th Thursday: What is on Sale

You will also notice a special interest email sign up for Longarming - we have a few things up our sleeve on this one. 
If you are a longarmer (or considering a purchase) make sure to click this one off  - that way you will be included in on those emails. It could be anything from great resources, upcoming specials on supplies or machines, etc.
We anticipate that the Longarm specific email will come out a few times a year.

Our blog/email newsletters use a different marketing system that doesn't communicate well with our system at the till. SO, if you feel like you had signed up for our blog/email newsletters but aren't receiving them - click here to re-register with our Constant Contact newsletter system to make sure these land in your mailbox!


Don't forget you can also find us on Facebook and Instagram! Please join us there for fun videos, promotions and behind the scene type of fun-ness!
