Anyone who walks into our store will immediately see our Machine Department. The ladies that work in that department are an invaluable source of machine knowledge and can help you find whatever bobbins, feet or software you may need for your particular brand of machine. But we'll highlight those lovely ladies another time. Today, we wanted to point out a facet of our store that many people don't know about: that we have an extremely busy and expert repair department.
And by department, we mean Andy.
Andy has been repairing machines for the Sewing Studio for years, which makes him the most knowledgeable person we know about the innards of sewing machines. He can, and has, repaired machines from half a century ago as well as the latest in computer controlled machines.
In fact, his eyes will light up if you bring in an old metal machine, as he claims that if you keep you mom's old workhorse in top condition it will continue to serve your grandchildren's quilting and sewing needs.
As with any machine with moving parts, yearly maintenance is recommended to keep it in great shape. But, be aware that due to his technical prowess Andy is often running two weeks from the day you drop off your machine until it's ready for you to pick up. He's just that popular!
So be sure that you can take a short vacation from your sewing projects while your machine is in the shop. But don't worry, when you have it back it will probably be running better than the day you originally unboxed it.
