The Thread Studio Newsletter
Number 98 September 2012
Hello Everyone – Welcome to September 2012 We have had another busy month in August, starting with the W.A. Craft Show
where it was great to see so many new and old faces (by that I mean people I have known for a long time...) We had a lovely big
stand just up the stairs and we all appreciated the fact that it was carpeted throughout. Jacinta and Linda did a super job working
away at their stations and many people commented on how wonderful it was to see them both. I pottered around at my station as
well. As a reward, we gave ourselves a wee r and r break in Broome and now we are all fired up preparing for The Australian Machine Quilting Festival in Adelaide at the end of this month. It’s a long time since we were in Adelaide and we look forward to seeing
lots of our customers.

Check out all the new
ones.

and Illuminations.
Sari Ribbon
Our hand dyed sari ribbon – we have 12 colours now but they
are in and out as fast as Jacitna can dye them. Byzantium has
just arrived.
Updated stock
There are actually quite a few new goodies which should
make the web in the next week or so. Ian works hard at
getting everything up but of course new things always arrive
together. Look forward to seeing new Flat Fabios, Paper Artsy
Fresco paints, Cottage Garden stranded, buttons, Silk Laps
and much more.....
We are also still finding stock which sold out at the Perth show
and then the web is updated. So apologies in advance for
when you order something and we have to tell you that it has
in fact gone. Obviously lots of our stuff comes back into stock
but sometimes it was a one-off. We try really hard to keep
everything up to date – thank goodness we don’t do many
shows!
Going going.
Always worth checking here – a very popular section of our catalogue where products come and go on a very regular basis. We are
constantly trying to make room for all the new goodies I keep finding. Once gone, never to be seen again.
Facebook
Don’t forget to follow us on facebook. It is a busy place most days and there is usually an inspirational photo to start your creative
day. This is where I announce new products and promotions.
Product of the Month
Is still proving to be very popular. It is a fabulous way to try new products out.
Finally
we hope you have a very creative September and see you in October.
