Sewing World

Went in to get a thread and a seam ripper and the lady was very nice and willing to help. Made a great first impression of the store. I'm not a sewing professional but I'd say there are a good selection of Pfaff and Singer accessories. Some of the sewing tools(not machines) are a little pricey but that might be normal.

Loved the store and Cheryl . Very personable. The Serger class I took , a different opinion. Lighting in the work area , terrible. Could hardly see. Very difficult to thread my machine. Instructor was pleasant enough, but class - difficult. Who says " turn to your manual and thread your machine "? The whole first lesson was like this. She had her lesson plan written out and we were to follow it. Hardly any verbal instruction. Granted, we all had different machines, but for someone who knew very little about my machine , I found it very intimidating. Second class was better after i had done a LOT of homework and viewing of online videos. Someone with less fortitude would have walked out the door. For a newbie, Very intimidating.

I have never been disappointed with either the staff or the product purchased here. The staff are extremely helpful, no matter the nature of my question with my embroidery matchine, serger, thread, classes or anything else. I was recently there with my 93 year old mother, who was interested in purchasing a sewing machine. She had specific requirements - had to be easy to use, not to expensive, and light weight. We were offered a number of choices and settled on one, brought it home, and, after having not sewed anything in 30+ years, she picked up right where she left off. Thanks for all your help and support!
