For The Love Of Sewing!
National Sewing Machine Day
Today we celebrate our love and passion for all things sewing.
Some of our much loved machines have been with us for over 40 years and still work a treat today.
With a rather impressive collection of industrial sewing machines at our factory each machinist has their favourite.
Here are just a couple of the models we use on each of our Partridge jackets...
Classic Lockstitch Machines
Our classic lockstitch machines are used for many components of production. Fast, reliable and durable we have a few favourites when it comes to industrial sewing machines...
Waxed cotton is a more specialist material and requires smooth and durable machines. Whenever we sew with waxed cotton we must use specialist needles and coated threads.
