In 2 sewing machines

Sewing machine store

👍👍 Amazing business and honest and fair owner. I was so frustrated when my old machine stopped working but Peter knew straight away what was wrong and fixed my machine whilst I waited.

The Handmade Elephant

Haberdashery

👍👍 Amazing shop! So lucky to have an independent haberdashery that stocks so much. Staff are friendly and always willing to offer advice. They also have an online store or you can call up to order items (which is great if you're in a hurry or limited on time)....but in person is what it is all about. A...

Exeter Sewing Machine Company

Sewing shop

👍👍 A delightful shop with a lovely crafted sign to let you know they are open. The shop is packed top to bottom with sewing machines, tie dyes, buttons, thread, you name it.

👍👍 I found Totally Buttons on a search for an independent UK based button stockist and when placing my initial, very small order (under £5) I missed a type of button I wanted to buy and sent an email to Julie, the owner, asking to please add a couple more buttons to my order. She has added them and se...

World of Sewing

🫤 Guy who services machines was incredibly rude and disparaging about the quality of my sewing machine. Yes, it's not top end but it was a gift to me and I am only starting out so no need to be cruel to someone new to sewing. Gave two stars as the lady serving me at the start had the good grace to be...
