Vintage Sewing Machine Show & Shine

Do you have a beloved vintage sewing machine you’d love to show off? Join us for our Vintage Machine Show & Shine! This fun and informal event celebrates classic craftsmanship and the beauty of well-loved machines that have stood the test of time.

Join us for an afternoon of inspiration, stories, and community as we explore the history of sewing through the machines that made it possible.

Event Highlights

• Show & Tell + Q&A
Bring your own vintage machine to display and share its story—or simply come by to admire the variety of machines others bring!

• Talk by Bizz
Enjoy a fascinating presentation on the history and advancements of vintage sewing machines, from treadles to early electrics.

• Special Offer
Your $25 registration includes one vintage sewing machine of your choice from our collection! We’ll have dozens of second-hand, non-serviced machines available—each full of charm and potential. Love more than one? Additional machines will be available for just $25 each (while supplies last). Machines are offered as-is, perfect for restoration projects or display pieces.

You don’t need to bring your own machine to join—come see what’s on display, chat with fellow enthusiasts, and enjoy Bizz’s talk. Whether you’re a collector, a sewist, or just curious, it’ll be a fun afternoon of creativity and connection.
