The owner, Tim, is very personable and everyone on staff has always been very helpful and pleasant. The store itself has everything one could possibly need for sewing and quilting, and I understand they're excited to offer classes again, as soon as they can. I'll return here again and again.

A lot to choose from a mix and match. Good prices. The service is exceptional. You get the support you need even after the purchase with classes for the use of your sewing machine. I did my research and Meissner is hands down the best choice to purchase a quality machine .
