Say It Isn't Sew!


Sewing Machine Repairs in Maine

Since the passing of our dear friend and sewing repairman and the closing of Cote Brothers, we are in need of a close source for our machine repairs and cleaning.

Several of you have reached out to me with suggestions to post and so far an attempt to find someone to pick up and drop off sewing machines in our area has not panned out.

I have posted a list of repair shops in Maine and NH under the "Sewing Machine Repairs" on the right side of the blog. If you click on the link, it will bring you to the website for more information. They are listed in alphabetical order, not by preference.

If you know of anyone else I can add to the list, please let me know.

Photos of QOVF Quilts In Progress

Donna Brookings, our local QOVF contact, has been good enough to send me a couple of more quilt tops put together using the blocks collected from our Charity Quilt Block Challenge.

Perhaps you notice a few of your own?
