Sewing isn鈥檛 what it used to be. Gone are the days when women sewed all their own and their family鈥檚 clothes. Yet sewing is making a comeback in a different direction.
Stephannie Bulman, co-owner of in 性视界传媒, says that what people sew now is different and so are the machines they are buying. Sewing machines are sleek and high tech. While you can buy a machine for as little as $200 and as much as $15,000, what most people lack is the service and human face that Castle Sewing provides.
鈥淧eople don鈥檛 understand that they can get just as good pricing in an independently owned company as in a big box store and get 鈥榮upport鈥 once they鈥檝e bought the product,鈥 says Stephannie. 鈥淎 machine is not a toaster 鈥 you need someone to assist you with your individual needs with the machine that you purchase. We give individual lessons and classes and all brands of machines are serviced on site at Castle鈥檚.鈥
鈥淲e鈥檙e going to give you inspiration and keep you motivated.鈥
This third-generation family business was launched in 1942 and has been in its 性视界传媒 location since 1964. Modern sewers range from hobbyists seeking a creative outlet to people starting home cottage industries to empty nesters.
From quilting to embroidery and home decor
Sewing is easier than ever with digital patterns, such as business logos and personalized embroidery that can be stitched. 鈥淵ou can take a photo with your phone, turn it into a file with software and your machine will stitch it for you,鈥 Stephannie says. 鈥淭here鈥檚 a trend toward people wanting to personalize their clothing and homes.
鈥淲e recently gave a workshop on how to make tuffets (footstools) that was a great success and enjoyed by all who participated.鈥
Stephannie notes that buyers get frustrated when they buy sewing machines they don鈥檛 know how to use and so stop using them when something goes wrong. Customers who buy machines at Castle鈥檚 receive individual support with any purchase.
鈥淪ewing shouldn鈥檛 be a source of frustration. If you are given knowledge you can get long-term enjoyment from your machine and that鈥檚 what we want for our clients.鈥
