Cape Town Sewing Centre

Cape Town Sewing Centre Cape Town Sewing Centre offers a one-stop-shop-sewing experience. We are a local haberdashery and we are bernina stockists.

Cape Town Sewing Centre was founded in 1998, when it was realised that the small sewing business had difficulty obtaining good quality supplies at reasonable prices. It was also important to have all elements of the garment available in one place, so that it was no longer necessary to get zips, elastic, ribbon, interfacing and buttons etc from different suppliers. The “one stop sewing shop” experi

ence was born. By sourcing both local and imported trims, designers and manufacturers are able to keep up with the latest trends. Orders or queries, either by fax or telephone, are dealt with quickly and efficiently. Operating hours

Mon – Friday:
8.30 – 17.00

Saturday:
8.30 – 13.00

BERNINA Feet of the Month: Bulky Overlocker Foot #12 &

These versatile presser feet are perfect for working with bulky knitted fabrics, piping, cords, beads, sequins, and decorative embellishments. Their specially designed wide groove allows thick fabrics and uneven layers to feed smoothly, helping you achieve professional-looking results with ease. Foot #12 is ideal for 5.5mm and 9mm machines, while Foot is designed specifically for 9mm machines.

Whether you're creating custom piping for cushions, adding decorative cords to garments, or sewing stretch fabrics, these feet make tricky sewing tasks simpler and more precise.
