A basic service will solve many of the most common issues with your sewing machine. (And help keep it working for years to come.)

Unfortunately it sounds like your machine might need some repairs (or some replacement parts) in addition to a "basic service".

Note: we recommend that you have your machine serviced for basic issues like a Noisy machine, Skipped Stitches, Poor Tension, Thread Nesting & ALL other sewing issues. If you know of a broken part we can repair or replace it. Please do NOT select 'repair only' for sewing issues.

When to bring in your machine

Once you have paid the $65 deposit, you are ready to drop off your machine any time that is convenient for you!

You don't need to schedule a drop off time, just bring your machine to the shop anytime that we're open.

But what if your machine is working fine and you want to keep sewing until you're next in the repair queu?

Great question. (We're updating our machine repair scheduling system, please bear with us as we make changes.)

Let us know that you'll be keeping your machine for as long as possible.
Expect to hear from us in 3 to 4 weeks (although this could change as we work through our queu of machines).
Bring your machine in when you can.

Once we have your machine, our usual turn around time is about a week or two (although we can be faster or slower depending on current volume). This does not include the time required if repair (or replacement) parts are needed.

Please note that repairs will (usually) incur additional labor charges depending on the scope of any additional work required.

Since your machine isn't working right now

Since your machine isn't working great (just okay)

You'll want to bring it in as soon as you can.

While we do our best to work through the machines in the order that the deposit is paid it doesn't hurt to get the machine into the shop ASAP - especially when we might need to order parts for it.

The work will definitely get done sooner if we have your machine in the shop right away.

What to Bring

Please be sure to bring:

Zig-zag Presser Foot
Bobbin Case
Bobbin
General Sewing Stitch Plate (Not Straight Stitch Plate)
Power cord and foot pedal

Selections will add to the price

Notify Me When Available

How it works

When you pay the deposit we'll put your machine in our repair schedule. (This can take us a few days to do, please be patient.) We'll send an email to let you know when your machine is scheduled and you should plan to drop off your machine before the scheduled date.

Or you can come to the shop, pay the deposit in the store and leave your machine with us. Whatever works for you.

When to bring in your machine

Once you have paid the $65 deposit, you are ready to drop off your machine any time that's convenient for you! You don't need to schedule a drop off time, just bring your machine in anytime that the shop is open.

If your machine isn't working, then we suggest that you bring it in ASAP. You never know if we'll find time to take a look at it and we might need to order parts.

If your machine is working great and it just needs a cleaning, then you can drop your machine off before your scheduled service date.
