After 81 years on Main Street, Sander's Sew-N-Vac is closing its doors.

This wasn't an easy decision. We've repaired your machines, cut your fabric, taught your classes and sent you home with vacuums that outlived the cars you drove here in. You've let us be part of your projects, your gifts, your quilts for new babies and for people you've lost. That's not something we take lightly, and it's not something we'll forget.

We close our doors on Friday, October 9 to get everything ready. Our Retirement Sale opens Monday, October 19 at 9am sharp. Everything in the store is for sale — fabric, notions, sewing machines, vacuums, quilting software and frames, parts, and eventually the fixtures themselves. Discounts will deepen as we go, but the best selection is on day one.

New hours starting October 19: Monday–Friday 9–5, Saturday 9–2. Yes, we're open Mondays now.

Repair customers: We're accepting new repairs through Saturday, October 31 only. All work will be finished by November 30, and every machine must be picked up by Tuesday, December 8. We're closed October 10–18, but we're here — call 605-225-4203 and we'll set up a time to get your machine to you. Reminder to bring a shopping bag with you!

Gift certificates and retreat credit will be honored through our final day, Tuesday, December 15. Don't forget to bring a shopping bag.
Sander's Sew-N-Vac · 111 South Main St, Aberdeen · 605-225-4203
Thank you. Truly. Come see us one more time.

❤️ **When a Community Comes Together, Amazing Things Can Happen** ❤️

Some stories are incredibly difficult to tell, but sometimes they also remind us just how much kindness, generosity, and compassion still exist in this world.

Recently, a very special woman in our community experienced a devastating and tragic life event that changed everything for her. Through circumstances no one should ever have to endure, she lost so much—including the ability to easily continue one of the things that brings her peace, purpose, and connection to her culture: **quilting**.

Her quilts are more than fabric and thread.

She creates beautiful **Native American ribbon skirts, star quilts, and other meaningful pieces**, often using her talents to give back to others within the Native American community. Quilting has been an important part of her life, her healing, and her way of preserving and sharing culture.

When I heard what had happened, I knew I had to try to help.

I reached out to **The Grace Company** and shared her story, hoping there might be some way they could help her continue doing what she loves.

And they did. ❤️

The generosity and compassion shown by **The Grace Company** helped make something possible that, not long ago, felt like only a dream.

Because of their kindness, she will be able to continue creating quilts, honoring her culture, helping others, and hopefully finding a little healing and peace through every stitch.

There truly are no words big enough to express my gratitude to Grace Company for listening, caring, and choosing to help someone during one of the most difficult chapters of her life.

This is what community is about.

It is about seeing someone hurting and asking, **“How can we help?”**

It is about businesses remembering that behind every sewing machine, quilt, and purchase is a real person with a real story.

And it is about giving someone hope when they need it most.

To **The Grace Company—thank you from the bottom of my heart.** You didn't simply help provide quilting equipment. You helped restore independence, creativity, purpose, and the opportunity for this incredible woman to continue sharing her gifts with her Native American community.

Sometimes quilting really is therapy.

Sometimes a quilt carries generations of history.

And sometimes, a simple act of kindness helps someone begin putting the pieces of their life back together again. ❤️🪡

**Thank you, Grace Company, for helping make her dream possible.**
