After 28 years of working as a sewing machine mechanic for both Stan Tucker and Geelong Sewing Centre I decided during January 2011 to establish my own business - John Thorpe Sewing Machine Repairs.
The decision to work for myself will enable me to provide a fast, efficient and high quality sewing machine and overlocker service and repair business for Geelong and the surrounding areas.
All leading brands of machines are catered for.
I am very pleased to be working alongside Zoe Clifton from The Blanket Box (patchwork and quilting shop). We have combined these two businesses in the one location to form a 'one stop shop'
for all sewing enthusiasts.
The Blanket Box has been established for over four years in a very convenient location on the corner of Coppards Road and the Bellarine Highway, Newcomb.
Free parking is readily available right outside the door.
John Thorpe Sewing Machine Repairs is located in store at The Blanket Box.
Please drop by anytime or call me on 0409 258 002.
I look forward to catching up with you soon.
John.
