As a new person that just came into town, I felt so unwelcome at this store. The person with 19 antique sewing machines felt it was necessary to show off her collection after I just lost mine in a flood. Not only was the staff unfriendly to new people who moved to town, but the staff felt it was necessary to cut up kits instead of showing off their new fabric they get in every week. Very disappointed and hurt. Never going back to Ann Arbor Sewing Center. I will not go to a place that makes me feel judged for not having a quality sewing machine. The staff handled my problem very poorly. Thank you everyone their making my first experience in your store the worst one. I will take my millennial self back to Joann’s and Michaels…They have a place for me there. 😿 Good luck Ann Arbor Sewing Center in staying in business

This place SAVED my old sewing machine! It died on me in the middle of a project, and although it’s not an expensive machine, it is still one I had hoped to use for a few more years, or at least to finish this project. I took it in (didn’t think to call for an appointment, just did a walk-in), and they were able to get it going again (with lots of oil…my fault for not keeping up with maintenance!). Many many thanks, will definitely be returning for fabric/supply shopping, and to purchase a new machine when the time comes.

Kind of an oddball little place. There are probably five or six levels. Some are only a step or two up, others are half of floor up. Lots and lots of choices of fabric. Some good fabric choices.Lots of notions and accessories. The staff was very helpful and seemed knowledgeable.It is worth a visit if you are experienced at sewing or even just a beginner.The parking lot is behind the building and the traffic flow is a little bit out of the ordinary. Follow the arrows on the pavement.

Ive visited twice in the last 2 months. My first time was to have my machines serviced for the first time after years of sitting unused and never serviced before. Rick was great checked them out and oiled them. Told me that the piece on my serger could be bought online and how to add it. I didnt trust myself to do called him last Friday and he told me to come in Monday afternoon in he would look at it. He popped it on within 2 minutes for free. Everyone in the store is super friendly and helpful your greeted soon as you enter. I will be a returning customer for sure. Thank You Rick 😊 Ann Arbor Sewing Center see you again soon!!! Glad I discovered you 🥰

One of my favorite local quilting stores!! I’ve been shopping here for over 10 years. They carry a wide range of fabric from traditional to batiks to modern. They even carry the entire line of Kona solids. I especially love their selection of children’s quilting cottons. I also bought my Bernina sewing machine from them and only trust them with it (I’ve tried 3 other stores but none hold a candle to AASC). It is worth the 1.5 hour drive one way! They have a quick turn around for repairs/cleaning and don’t try to upsell you during routine maintenance.They also have a large selection of patterns and notions and they also offer classes. Fabric is organized and the staff is super friendly and helpful.Be aware there is a flight of stairs to climb from the parking lot. If you have a handicap sticker for your car be sure to park out front. A restroom is located on site.

Dropped of an old sewing machine for service, so far the staff has been great! Very helpful & friendly, estimates were given & I received a call before work began :)

They are super well stocked on fabrics and are all lovely people. They helped me get some stuff to finish off a quilt.

Fast, friendly service; warm and caring atmosphere. I want to work there!!!!! Such a fun group of people! Oh, and what can be more interesting than an old converted school? We walked in with a jammed sewing machine and tension. . . not just the machine. . .and walked out with smiles, jokes, and a sewing machine ready to work again.

Great shop with great fabrics and very pleasant workers.

My wife likes to bring me to help her pick out fabric (Im not much help) but love spending time with her. The store is great with friendly staff who will assist with any questions you might have!

A wonderful store for sewing machines and quilting supplies fabricsand notions. Inspiring classes before Covid, and expert help on any topic. Fabrics in literal rainbows through multiple rooms. Reliable and fair price repairs. Long-standing Ann Arbor business.I do wish they carried a wider range of apparel fabric in wool and silk etc. But I know one store cant do everything.

The ladies were very, very helpful! I acquired my Grandmothers Bernina, and I only knew what the manual and YouTube had told me. They were a wealth of information and kindness.

Being new to sewing machine sewing I was totally heartbroken when on my first try, the sewing machine just quite working - handwheel locked up, couldnt figure out the issue. Well, it was a nice surprise when I walked in to the sewing center - everyone was so nice and Rick helped fix my machine (apparently it just needed some oil!). I was in and out in 10 minutes and I cant wait to get started on this project and be able to go back for supplies for my next project!! They have everything you could ever need! Thank you!!

Prompt, professional service. Technician repaired my machine while I waited. It was a minor issue (my fault), but I wasnt made to feel guilty. Thank you Ann Arbor Sewing Center!

Hands down the best experience Ive ever had getting my sewing machine repaired! It was a simple fix, just some lint stuck in the bobbin holder. They fixed it right there on the spot! I thought I wouldve had to wait a week and come back. This is such a lovely gem of a place in Ann Arbor full of all your sewing needs. Thank you Ann Arbor Sewing Center because its places like yours that really do impact peoples lives for the best. Thank you!!!

Today I took my machine in expecting to have to leave it and wait a week to get it back. Nope! I received help right away. He looked at my machine while I waited and fixed it up and sent me home with a machine all ready to roll.I love Ann Arbor Sewing Center. Their customer service is top notch and they have great pricing as well.

Thanks for taking a look at my super old quaint portable White sewing machine yesterday. 😄 I came in on a whim to see if you could fix it up and you immediately took a look at it, gave it some TLC and sent me on my way - no charge! I appreciate the help and look forward to taking a class there as soon as we get back to normal.

Rick did a great job evaluating my Bernina sewing and embroidery machine’s performance. He was knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. He immediately met with me when I arrived, explained everything to me and installed all the software updates. Quick, efficient, and thorough! I’d highly recommend getting Bernina service here.Ann Arbor Sewing Center has a fantastic selection of fine fabrics and sewing accessories.

Great store! Great staff! All the fabric you could ever want and more.

These people are so helpful! My machine was broken and other stores said it would be over a week and very expensive to evaluate the problem. I took mine here and Rick fixed it in 5 minutes for free!

Just had my older Viking machine repaired - it was taken care while I waitedCouldn’t have been more pleased. Have always had a good experience hereThe employees have always been helpful & kindGreat place!

I took in my sewing machine in for a bad Bobin case, expecting to leave it for a few weeks. The Tech repaired it while I waited! Such a nice guy said it wasn’t too difficult and didn’t charge me for the work! Wow!

I have not seen the vast array of fabrics like that anywhere. Beautiful colors and patterns. So many gadgets. ❤️

Great shop with tons of fabric to select from. I will definitely be going back because they carry everything a sewer or quilter would need.

My wife loves it, she states that everyone working there is polite and helpful.

This was my first time in this store, (3 weeks ago), I immediately liked it. It is very clean and well organized. There seems to be everything you could possibly need for sewing or quilting. I loved the wall art, it gave me many ideas of what I would like to do or learn next. Lisa greeted me and asked if i needed any help, which i did. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. She showed me where to get all the items needed to complete a kit I was interested in. I even signed up for a class she will be teaching and I immediately joined. This class will be tomorrow and I’m excited to see what i can learn. Thank you Lisa!

Super shop! Fast service on all machines. Friendly staff. Lovely selection of fabrics, patterns, and notions. Im looking forward to my next visit.

I had the best experience at Ann Arbor Sewing Center with my Singer Curvy machine. I brought it in today to get serviced and Rick sat right down with me and looked at my machine immediately. He was able to fix my machine ON THE SPOT and I got to bring my machine right back home with me all fixed!! It was great customer service and everyone working there was so nice. I have recently moved to Ann Arbor so it is so great to know there is such a high-quality sewing machine repair and supply shop in town. I 100% recommend to anyone who needs a sewing machine repair or for other sewing supplies!!

I have heard so many compliments and raves about you.I have a very good fellow quilter, that wanted me to take my machine to you to get looked at. At the time I had already made an appointment to have another repair person do a cleaning. It has an issue that he thought he had fixed. The issue is back, for the final time, so I’m heading to you all. Hoping and praying this is an easy fix, so I can get back to quilting. It’s been a struggle using my older machine although it’s a great machine I miss my newer one. See you soon!

Thank you for the excellent curb side service! I am making masks and bought 2 of the pre-cut bundles offered. I was VERY happy with their fabric choices and customer service.

Came in to have my old Singer sewing machine looked at after it fell about 2 feet onto concrete. Rick was very knowledgeable and honest and told me all it really needed was a basic tune up and some new oil. He did that free of charge on the spot - took about 10 mins. I’ll definitely always bring my machine back to this store. The staff is so kind and helpful.

I called Ann Arbor sewing center to ask for help with my sewing machine. Pam and another woman tried to help me on the phone. Took my machin in. Bother women tried to help me without success. Then Rick had me fixed in minutes! Cant these wonderful enough for their help! All staff are very friendly and efficient! Thank you very much. Great place to buy a sewing machine. They are there when you need them. Even 5 years later I might add.

I brought in a sewing machine that did not work. I was contacted promptly that it would cost more to fix than to buy new. I have never worked on a sewing machine before but since it wasnt fixable (budget-wise), I decided to give it a try. Within a 1/2 hour and a little oil under the bobbin, the machine is running like new. I was disappointed that they wanted to sell me a new one versus truly investigating the repair (a very simple repair for a trained sewing machine repair person :(.

Great selection of fabric & helpful staff.

A well organized, huge selection of high quality quilting fabric. They also have a great turnaround time on refreshing the fabric collections. The staff are friendly and helpful, and there are always new quilts and projects hanging up to drool over. Plus their notions section is beautiful. Highly recommend!

I brought my wifes machine in. The repair was addressed very promptly and it is working like new. The staff is very professional and good to work with. I would highly recommend!! A+ !!

This shop is well stocked with all kinds of gorgeous fabric and notions. They have regular class offerings that range from newbies to advanced, as well as sewing classes for kids.

Huge selection of fabrics and Bernina sewing machines. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. Definitely a must for quilters!!

Huge selection of gorgeous fabrics and lots of helpful staff!

Really nice people work there. And the selection of quilting fabrics is the best in the area. Wonderful range of quality cottons and batiks, and some truly fun quilts on the walls too. We wont mention the tempting quilting books.....

Came in when closing, beautiful fabric. Will have to come bk when they arent closing.

Great customer service from Rose. Im fairly inexperienced, albeit, enthusiastic at my sewing machine. She patiently answered all of our questions and was most helpful. Ill be back again!

Lovely store. Well stocked in fabric and notions. Went when a big sale was going on. Will go back during a quieter weekday.

What a fun visit to a local sewing store. They have just about everything that you need for quilting and, other than garment Fabrics or patterns, they have just about everything you need for your garment sewing room. The staff were all super helpful both in choosing Fabrics, choosing accessories, picking a great cutting board, Etc. I loved all of the selections of fabric too. Different weights, different patterns, different Fabrics themselves. I found everything that I needed very quickly and the staff were so kind. There is parking in the back make sure you follow the one way signs so that you dont accidentally run into someone.They have quilting groups and a newly-formed garment sewers group. They put out a newsletter that tells you all of the recent happenings so that you can be in the loop.

They sell and service sewing machines, including my favorite Vikings. Their selection of quilt and embroidery supplies is excellent.

This quilting and material store is huge with a wide selection of materials, notions and Bernina sewing machines. The owners, Kris and Doni, are beyond lovely and helpful. We had our machine fixed perfectly, and gotten some sewing advice for a big craft project. They also helped the local high school group sew Dresses for Africa, and boy shorts, too, and they were colorful and adorable!

I cant recommend AASC enough for sewing machine repair. I have a basic Singer machine I inherited that I took for service a couple years ago (i.e., nothing fancy; Im not a quilter); they were quick and reasonably priced. I thought I was seeing the same symptoms again now--3 years later--and the staff took 15 minutes to correct a tensioning problem free of charge. They now have a customer for life.

Helpful staff large selection of quilting fabric

Nice fabric, wide selection. Lots of patterns. Friendly, helpful staff.

Excellent service and good people and a great inventory of fabrics.

Looks small on the outside but surprisingly big on the inside. Staff are very friendly and knowledgable. Very nice local sewing shop

Wonderful staff, incredibly helpful. I got a used, entry level machine, it comes with free lesson on how to use it and the basics of sewing, as well as a year of parts and labor! I strongly recommend them for all your sewing and quilting needs!

Employees are very knowledgeable. The ONLY place to buy a sewing machine!

Wonderful ❣️ fabric and even nicer staff. One of my favorite places.

Please dont ever close. You are all that we have left. What a great place for ideas, fabric, great staff.

This is a great store.

I went here looking for something totally obscure, and they had it! Theres a huge selection of sewing and embroidery machines, parts and accessories, and fabrics and thread. I cant imagine what youd need that they dont have.

Lovely place with so much to learn for anyone whos interested in truly getting to know how to sew!!And, for quilting!!!!

There is no other place to go for fabric and all things needed for quilting! The store has a pleasant, knowledgeable staff, a wide variety of fabrics and notions, sewing machines with on-site repair, threads, books, and patterns.

Tons of fabric....TONS! Great Bernina dealer. Also hold classes here. Worth the drive...

Always a much longer visit than you think, the array of fabrics is mind blowing, staff very very helpful

Well stocked in quilting supplies and a great place to get your machine serviced

Lots of fabric and patterns. They offer classes as well. The have greatly improved the parking.

I have taken my machine to Rick Chouinard at the sewing center and it came back to me better than new! I will not take my machine anywhere else! Thanks Rick!

A few months ago a posted an angry review for the poor service I received. Doni responded prompty, I believe you can see her response below. True to her word, she was so kind and incredibly helpful in helping me accomplish my project. I met so many wonderful people in the store who were warm, patient, took the time to listen to what I was trying to make and taught me the basic skill necessary to achieve my vision. When I completed the project, I was so excited to go back and share the final product with all who helped me. I am excited to explore the world of sewing and quilting now, and I will return to this store for guidance. It was my bad luck, to have encountered a less warm sales person on my first visit, but Im so glad for Donis vision and professionalism, and that she did not let me give up on them. I would recommend this store to ANY skill level, especially beginners looking to learn and try something new.

I love this place and everyone that works there. Quality and customer service are their goals and they are constantly exceeding them.

Great store. Wonderful assortment of quality fabrics. Nice people.

Lovely customer service, friendly and helpful and the store is well presented and welcoming☺

Beautiful fabric & great, helpful staff.

Rated great from reading others but really have a question and can’t find a place to write it. Am moving back to Howell Michigan from Tennessee at 68. Bought my first Viking on Main Street in 1971. After graduating UM. Wonder if this is same store. Now have Bernina’s and new 880 bought in February 2018 and wonder how changing stores reflects warranties ect. Kinda can’t go back to Tennessee for free classes. Grew up in Hartland.

I bought my Bernina 350 here and I love it! They have a FREE class to help you get to know your machine! I learned things I didnt even know a machine could do!

A tad snobby but they know what theyre doing. edit: 4 stars isnt really fair. It was really just 2 employees bickering over something.

Neat and organized with a friendly staff. Outstanding selection of fabrics!

Great selection of fabric, notions, patterns and everything quilting. Friendly staff. Love shopping for fabric here.

Extensive fabric selections, which includes specialty fabrics plus every Kona solid available. Skilled, helpful and knowledgeable staff who are extremely personable. Second generation family-owned and great tech service. Classes and special events. Bernina, Husqvarna Viking & Pfaff. Supplies and feet galore.

Great quilt store. Very helpful.

Very happy with them so far and more important my wife

Excellent quilting and sewing shop with lots of higher quality fabrics than Jo-Ann Fabrics.

Great shop with friendly and helpful staff....and oh ao many samples to look at

What a beautiful selection of quilting fabrics. From Kaffe Fassette to Civil War Era reproductions to batiks, there is something for every taste. They also sell sewing machines; Viking, Pfaff, Bernina and Singer, did i miss any? Everyone working there was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back.

I love this store ! Great selection of fabric within 30 miles !
