Est. 2023
At Your service
​
Hello, I'm Jo, the sewing machine mechanic.
​
I'm here to get you sewing again. Whether you are using a vintage Singer from your gran, an all-singing, all-dancing modern computerised machine or industrial machine, whether you are a hobbyist or sew for a living, if it's broken or just needs some TLC — I'm here to help.
​
I'm a fully qualified, independently-certified sewing machine mechanic with experience on a wide range of machines from ultra-modern, computerised embroidery machines to straight-stitch Victorian hand-crank and everything in between.
​
I also have many years of experience using sewing machines as a seamstress and hobbyist so I know the frustrations of a machine not working properly and what it looks like for a machine to sew perfectly.

Singer 449
With its sleek shape and crisp mint green colour, this classic Singer machine combines the charm of the early 70s and the reliability of a well-built straight stitch machine. Able to sew thin fabrics and strong enough to tackle thick denim.
​
This machine has been fully serviced and fitted with a new top gear. It also comes with an integrated light bulb.
​
Excellent working condition. 10% off next annual service.

Singer 99k
A classic beauty, the Singer 99k is sturdy and reliable. Smaller than the previous models, these machines were once considered to be portable. Well-built and now fully serviced, this machine will go through everything from thick denim or leather while being perfectly fine with delicate fabrics. It may only do a straight stitch but this Singer has all the functionality you need with the reliability that an older machine brings.
​
Fully serviced and in excellent working condition. 10% off next annual service.
