Welcome to our Online Shop!


We have confidence in what we sell, therefore we only sell brands that are robust, innovative, reliable and trusted.


Purchasing a sewing machine is a big deal. Getting the right one to fit your needs is important. We offer a personal service to all our customers who are looking for an experience with a company who know what they are talking about, can provide back up and be on hand to answer any questions.


That's why we don't sell directly online to customers.


Did you know that when you buy a sewing machine online from a company, they are responsible for the care and warranty of your machine? Therefore if any issues were to arise, your machine would have to go back to the shop you purchased from more often than not at your cost!  Not easy when it could be hundreds of miles away.


By offering a "click and collect" service, you can try before you buy, compare to other models, have a 1-1 lesson on your machine and have any problems fixed by your local sewing machine shop including repairs and servicing.


We have many customers who pop in with their recent makes from their new machine. It builds community, inspires others plus we really do care and love to see!
