I came here on a Saturday to have a poke around at some sewing machines. This was my second visit to the few shops that sold sewing machines in Vancouver. Honestly, night and day in terms of service and attentiveness.
Sabine was welcoming, personable and let me play around with the machines. She gave me some options to think about, took my name and number and said she’d call me when they reopen on Wednesday to see how I went. Sure enough, after I had a few days to sleep on it and do some more research, I get her call and I end up closing on a Pfaff Select 4.2. Picked it up on the same day.
This is a gem in the city. I bought needles and bobbins there yesterday. She used an old school credit swiper with paper slips which made my day.
I would love for everyone I know to support this store. Family run business for 50 years!

I am sure I will be able to ask her on the phone if any questions come up. I will definitely be purchasing more accessories here, and it's nearby for repairs or maintenance needs.
