Janome Keeps Marie Osmond in Stitches
Internationally Renowned Singer,
Actress, Author and Philanthropist To Team with Janome’s
Memory Craft 11000
MAHWAH, N.J. (Business Wire EON) May 1, 2008 --
Marie Osmond’s life-long passion for quilting
is a treasured legacy passed down from her mother, Olive, who showed her
only daughter how to turn ordinary scraps of fabric into extraordinary
works of art. Marie’s continued love of
homemade needlecrafts and her commitment to introducing the pleasure of
sewing to generations to come makes her a perfect partner for Janome
America, Inc., a leading manufacturer of home sewing machines. The new
Janome Memory Craft 11000 has become Marie’s
signature choice in a sewing, quilting and embroidery machine.
“For me, sewing is great therapy,”
said Marie. “Creating a quilt is not only fun
and relaxing, it’s a personal and unique way
to connect with others. Some of my best memories are times I spent
quilting with my Mom, my children, and my friends, or making a quilt as
a gift. The reliability and simplicity of the Janome Memory Craft 11000
gives me the time and the freedom for unlimited creative possibilities. I’m
pretty sure a busy woman must have designed this machine!”
“Whether you grew up watching ‘The
Donny & Marie Show’ or watched her
faithfully on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’
you’ve only had a glimpse of Marie’s
energy and enthusiasm,” said Jiro Hagiwara,
president and CEO of Janome America, Inc. “She
brings that enthusiasm and creative energy to everything she does and it
makes our partnership with her invaluable.”
As part of the agreement, Marie will support Janome’s
Memory Craft 11000, a versatile machine that can be used for embroidery,
quilting, garment sewing and overall crafting projects. It features
unsurpassed stitch precision, reliability and performance, all in an
easy-to-use package.
In addition, the Janome website, www.Janome.com,
will feature instructions and patterns for a dramatic quilt project
using fabrics from Marie’s Blanc et Noir
and brand new Blanc et Noir-Brights collections. The site will
also feature instructions and patterns for an embroidered pashmina Marie
designed for Janome.
