Dear Beginners:
A successful start begins with your own comprehension of sewing machine
useage. Please come knowing how to use your own or one of our classroom machines.
"Machine Basics for Novices" is a great place to receive this start-up information
on our "loaner" classroom machines. In addition, all machines purchased at our store
include thorough instruction and guide classes. If you are in the market to purchase a
sewing machine, please see one of our capable sewing machine consultants for the
right sewing machine for you.
Thank you, Eddie
