Sewing is fun, educational, practical, and will save you money!

  • You can make clothing for yourself or others. It is more economical and practical to sew quality-made clothing.
  • You will save money on alterations by adjusting store-bought clothing or extending the life of the clothing you already have.
  • You can alter clothing for others and even start a new business.
  • You can sew and make crafts for yourself, as gifts for others, or to sell.
  • You can sew home decor items for your own home or for others which is much less expensive than purchasing retail.
  • You can express your creative side and design something that is exactly the size, color, style, and fabric that you want.

    • Sewing is a wonderful hobby for all ages!
    Sewing is a wonderful medium of empowerment. Sewing is great for developing problem-solving skills and enhances productivity. Be sure to sign up for our upcoming classes coming soon at our new studio.

    Here are tips for keeping your sewing machine in optimum operating condition:
    • Replace your sewing needle every time you begin a project. A dull or slightly bent needle will cause poor stitch quality and the needle could break.
    • Clean the dust and lint out of the bobbin case area after each project. It is also easier if you vacuum the lint out using an attachment. Do not blow the lint out because it could blow the lint into the sewing head.
    • Remove any nicks in the throat plate by gently rubbing with Crocus Cloth. This helps avoid abrasion to thread and reduces thread breakage.
    • Plug your machine into a surge protector which avoids power surges and low-power "brown-outs."
    • Get your machine serviced and cleaned at least once a year.
