Sewing machines
We have had 2 lovely sewing machines come into our store, one is a Janome sewing machine and the other is a Bernina over locker and both are in excellent condition, to go with these we still have plenty of lovely fabric for you to choose from.
We would also like to say a big thank you to everyone that has kindly donated money to the Cyclone appeal it will all go to areas that need it the most to help restore some kind of normality again for so many people that have lost so much.
