Triangle Sewing Centre has been operating since 1970 and from its address on Woolwich Street since 1999. This remarkable business has grown over the years. Not surprising, when you discover all they have to offer.
It doesn’t matter if you’re new to sewing, only do a little sewing from time to time, or enjoy making all your own clothes. This is the place to be for all skill levels. In fact, this is the place where you can hone your sewing skills and learn more.
First of all, Triangle Sewing Centre sells some of the best machines on the market – brand names such as Bernina, Janome and Brother. The things these machines can do is nothing short of remarkable. Sewing a seam? Sure. But that’s just child’s play these days.
The internet has had a huge influence on today’s sewing market. Many machines come with programs already loaded, but these can be enhanced and added to by downloading additional programs through your computer.
This opens up a whole new world for those who love to create with fabric. Today’s machines quickly and easily create the most beautiful designs. Any of the helpful staff at Triangle Sewing Centre will be happy to show examples of what is possible. You’ll be utterly amazed at what can now be created in the comfort of your home. And it’s such fun! Here’s the really neat part -when you buy a machine from Triangle Sewing Centre, it includes lessons on how to use it.
Hands up all those who own sewing machines and aren’t really confident in using them; or don’t use them to their full potential. It’s a common situation, but you can take the mystery out of your machine by attending some of their classes. Get to know your machine, and meet others who enjoy sewing.
They also do a remarkable job of promoting the skill with children as well.
Every Tuesday night is Kid’s Club at the Triangle Sewing Centre. This has proven to be a very popular event. Children learn to sew, and get a tremendous thrill out of creating something for themselves. There are kids here who are already quite skilled at making their own clothes. And, of course, it’s a skill they will keep for life.
Although the summer is over, we should mention that the store offers a March Break and a summer camp for children too. The upstairs classroom is big and bright, the walls decorated with examples of past creations. What a great idea for a creative child.
They also offer a wide range of adult classes, everything from dressmaking to quilting and for all skill levels. There’s even a class totally dedicated to zippers and how to insert them.
So pull that machine out of the closet and put it to some use! Today’s fabrics are fabulous, and the creative ideas and options are endless. With Christmas around the corner, you might consider making your gifts. Or, if you know someone who loves to sew, how about a gift certificate from Triangle Sewing Centre?
Quilting is an immensely popular pastime. You’ll find quilting classes here too. There are some exquisite examples of quilts on display in the store, with patterns to suit all tastes and preferences. You’ll find a large selection of batik fabrics in store, including a good choice of fat quarters.
If you’re interested in taking up quilting, you’ll find classes for that too at Triangle Sewing Centre.
The best thing is to go down and browse the store. The sewing machines and sergers are all on display. Ask for a demonstration – the friendly staff will be happy to oblige. The selection of threads is off the charts. Any and everything to do with sewing is here. If you don’t see it, they’ll likely be able to source it for you.
Oh, and they have one of the best button selections anywhere. Even the knitters among you should check those out. You’ll be smiling!
