Sew happy on National Sewing Machine Day

We’ve fallen back in love with sewing over recent months. What started out as ‘needs must’ – sewing scrubs and face coverings – has shifted into a rekindling for dressmaking. Sewing machine sales have grown considerably since March and there’s no sign of the trend slowing. ‘We believe that the continued resurgence is driven by people being more mindful of their consumption, with recent events amplifying the need to live more sustainably,’ says Partner & Buyer Blair Christie. New to dressmaking? Blair advises choosing a machine with built-in stitches, like the best-selling JL110, which will be back in stock soon.
