We love it when a story has a happy ending! 🧵

One of our generous customers recently donated her BERNETTE Funlock overlocker and we wanted to share where it ended up.

Sylvia Sojambase, a loyal customer of seven years who runs a sewing shop from home, had both of her overlockers break down beyond repair. When we made the connection, we knew it was the perfect match. Sylvia was so touched when she heard the news that she was moved to tears!

A big thank you to the donor for her kindness. It's moments like these that remind us what a wonderful community we have! 🤍

WE'RE BACK!

We made it through the massive storm and power challenges - and we're finally open again!

A heartfelt thank you to the Eskom & Overstrand technicians for their incredible dedication & hard work under extremely difficult weather conditions. Your efforts are truly appreciated!

WE'RE NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET... :-(

Although electricity has been restored to many areas in Hermanus, our business complex is still without power.

We will keep you updated on the situation, and as soon as power has been restored, we'll let you know. Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for your continued patience and understanding. 🤗

THE POWER FAILURE HAS WON THIS ROUND! Unfortunately we remain closed today due to the severe weather and a power outage caused by damage to the power lines.

We will keep you updated. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Our last price increase was in August 2024, and we did our best to keep prices the same for our customers throughout last year.

Due to rising costs, a small price increase will take effect from 1 April 2026. If your machine is due for a service, now is a great time to bring it in before the increase.

Thank you for your continued support!🧵
