A Few Common Answers

Is it just for sewing

No.

Thread

You will need to bring your own thread suitable for the type of sewing you are doing. We can lend you empty bobbins for the machines, they all take standard sizes.

Needles

Machine needles are provided and replaced if they break due to the machine binding. If you break one by hitting a pin, clip, button, zip etc, you will be charged for the needle. We do not supply sewing needles, thimbles, knitting needles or crochet hooks. We do not supply any other form of needle or tool.

Scissors

We have a small selection of scissors that are available to borrow from reception. They are used by lots of people to cut lots of different materials and may not be the sharpest or the right type for your project. We recommend you bring your own to be sure you have what you need.

Pins - Clips - Pegs

If we have them in-stock we will sell them to you. If not, you will need to bring your own preferred method to attach your materials before sending them through the machine.

Toilet

There is a toilet for customers in the unit and a public toilet on site.

Tea, Coffee, Soft Drinks & Snacks

All are provided but this isn't afternoon tea at the Ritz. PG tips, Nescafe, Squash and some Choccy Biscuits are much more likely. You can rest assured, we do NOT use Yorkshire Tea Bags.

Parking

WTF!! FREE PARKING ON-SITE. Gates are open 08:30 - 17:00.

We can open the gate if times overrun. We rarely lock people in.
