Got a sudden thread jam, erratic tension,
or skipped stitches mid-project?

It's time to bring your machine for a Quick Fix!

Make an appointment, fill out a short form, then bring your machine to an upcoming
Quick Fix Clinic!

The Quick Fix is meant to diagnose, troubleshoot, and attempt to resolve mechanical issues quickly.
Your machine will not be fully cleaned or lubricated and no timing adjustments, chemical
cleanings, or other complex procedures will be done.

Most machines will be fixed and ready to sew again with this service,
and we make every attempt to get you sewing again as quickly as possible.

(Quick Fix $49+ tax fee is a pre-paid, non-refundable fee due at appointment booking.)
