Any preconceptions about sewing can be left outside the door of E&A Sewing Machine Service’s location on Henderson Hwy in Winnipeg. As the business’s owners will tell you, sewing is becoming an activity of choice among enterprising young people and professionals in need of stress relief.
Younger designers, for example, are sewing their own clothing or selling their creations online. And men have taken up quilting. Apparently, it’s just the thing for dealing with stress. Doctors and nurses are just some of the folks bringing business to E&A.
Naturally, the store sells and repairs industrial sewing machines as well.
The co-owners of E&A have spent decades in the garment industry and have experience in everything from teaching the craft at a factory level to helping individual sewing enthusiasts properly use and maintain their domestic machines.
For the novices, the professionals at E&A Sewing Machine Services can help select the right machine and provide the necessary operating information. As there are many different types of machines, each specializing in something different, it’s important that the customer takes home the machine they’ll enjoy using.
Among the benefits of shopping at E&A, where customers can also buy threads and needles, is the inventory of parts that make fixing broken machines relatively straightforward and quick. And every sewing machine they sell is served in-store. Not a single one is shipped off for service elsewhere.
Even if a sewing machine owner has a unit that wasn’t purchased at E&A Sewing, they are still welcome to drop it off anytime between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. and the staff will be happy to provide the necessary maintenance or service.
Local schools, too, can get in touch regarding sewing machine services. Many in the area already do, but E&A has the capacity for even more. They’ll even come to the school and pick up the machines, themselves.
E&A Sewing Machine Services Ltd. is located at 1107A Henderson Highway in Winnipeg, MB. They are open Monday to Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and can be reached by calling (204) 668-8362 or emailing e.a.sewing@gmail.com. Their inventory of sewing machines can be browsed on their website.
