Holiday Shopping
December is such a busy month. What with all the baking, shopping, decorating, partying and school functions to attend. *Sigh* There’s hardly time to get any sewing done. But here at Sewing Party, we’ve got some friendly elves to get your holiday shopping done. If you need a fabulous gift for your Secret Sister or the quilter/sewing enthusiast in your life, then head down to Sewing Party. We’ve got gift certificates ready and for every $20.00 gift certificate you purchase, you get to choose a fat quarter for yourself! Gift certificates make a great stocking stuffer and stand by gift in case you inadvertently forgot to add someone on your list.
If you prefer to do the shopping but loathe doing the gift wrapping, not to worry. We will gladly take care of that for you, as well. We’ve got plenty of parking ( no need to drive round and round at the mall) and friendly elves to help you put your projects together.
