Sailrite sewing machine

Sewing Machine

We are ready to serve your sewing machine needs with a Sailrite sewing machine. This workhorse will do basic straight and zigzag stitches for apparel sewing, but is robust enough to sew multiple layers of canvas and even leather if that's what your project needs.  

No prior experience with a sewing machine? No problem! Hands-on assistance is available upon scheduling before your visit to the studio.
