The community of Elk Grove is a fusion of traditional and contemporary living. It holds a strong historical place in the edge of the Central Valley while being closely tied to the outer edges of Sacramento. Because of this, you find small, family-owned businesses that provide something that’s so much bigger than its parts. A perfect example of that is Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum. If it’s possible to fall head over heels in love with a shop, I’ve experienced that with this charming place. Please read on to learn while you’ll fall under the charm of Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum.

The Thread That Binds

I may have confessed this before but think it’s worth repeating that I’m social being who always does her best when working as part of a team.  So, the first time I walked through the doors of Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum, my attention immediately veered to the right where a group of people were sewing together. Okay, I need to say they were each sewing on individual projects together. I don’t want to mislead you to think that I found a place where nine people are busy sewing bits and pieces of fabric together to make one large piece of bedding. Wait, that does exist in quilting guilds, I’m sure, but that isn’t what happens at Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum or at least, that isn’t what was going on the day I was lucky enough to visit.

I spoke with a very friendly staff person named Julie who explained that there is “open sewing” for people who want to bring whatever they are sewing and work as part of a group. Sewing tables are made available and people meet to socialize while working on individual projects. From what I learned, there are several enthusiastic sewists (side note: sewist is a real world and not one fashioned after my own imagination’s pattern)  who count on this as their social outlet and opportunity to exchange tips with others passionate about sewing. While everyone may be working on a different type of project and at various levels of expertise, the thread that binds them is the love of sewing. And what a place to sew!

Surrounded By Sewing Superiority

A long time ago in another season of life, I became a quilter. Well, that might be a reach but please lets say I was interested in learning the art of quilting. I was captivated by the rich fabric colors; I was mesmerized by the endless variety of patterns; I was enthralled with the tools of the trade, and I was emotionally spellbound by the notion that I had a whole new world in which to participate. I loved almost everything about quilting but one thing: the need for precision and patience. Those two requirements, those two seemingly basic skills, those absolute mandatory practices make or break a quilters work.  Unfortunately, I was in the wrong queue when those characteristics were handed out in the game of life so I lacked both. With a place like Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum, I might have gained one or even both because it seems that everyone, from staff to those working on their projects, are so encouraging. I could hear the conversations going on around me as I walked among the top of the line sewing machines, fabric collections and patterns. I felt like I was surrounded by superior products and supportive people, a.k.a. secret to success. If you’re a sewist or have someone in your life who is, you probably know that nothing is more exciting than the row of sewing machines for sale. And what a collection you must choose from at Elk Grove Sewing and Vacuum! All the top brands of sewing machines are sold and just as importantly, are serviced.
