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
