No matter what machine you buy, you are always treated as though you bought the top of the line. They have furniture, notions, fabric and patterns. They have Acuquilt cutting machines and templets. However the most precious commodity they have in the store is the staff. They are so knowledgeable and friendly. One of the owners, Sara Gallegos is a national educator! I just finished a 4 day specialty class with so many details about my brand and model of machine that I feel like it's new again, learning even more things that it can do. I also have to mention Dominic, he's an expert repairman, and teacher. If you haven't been there you are really missing out. Take a class and you will see what I mean.

Shama, the owner, was great! Very personable and wonderful to work with…read more I wanted to get an engraving done on a baptism gift for my niece and of course waited until the last minute to pick what I wanted to give her. After noticing my local Things Remembered had closed its doors and after getting rejected for doing an outside engraving by one business, I found Sami's Engravings in Troy. She was honest in expressing that she would need to see my item to evaluate if engraving was possible at her store which was no issue since I had a flat, thicker, glass surface for which I wanted engraved. I came in Tuesday afternoon for her to complete an engraving by Thursday afternoon. But she was able to get it done and I picked it up in less than 24 hours! The process was able to move quickly because she was technologically savvy enough to shoot me texts for when she sent me emails as I am much slower to respond to emails. This allowed to me approve of the design swiftly so she could do her part to meet an aggressive deadline. And she did it all with kindness and a serving spirit! I would definitely come back to get my nephew's baptism gift engraved (once I figure out what I am getting him)! I will also be telling my friends and coworkers about her store for their gifting needs! It has been so hard to get optimum service since COVID. A+ Service A+ Speed A+ Communication

Ok here are the positives: It's definitely different and innovative. With Painting with a Twist…read more(and the likes) becoming so popular, this concept of making framed signs, pillow cases, clothed signs, etc., is quite new. And with the end product, there's a greater chance of you putting it on display at home than putting up a painting (unless you're really good at it). The problem I have is with the stencils and the quality of them. When you put a stencil onto the piece, you should never have to worry about paint bleeding out. Hence, the purpose of the stencil. Yet, this continued to happen. Even putting the stencil on the piece (which is done by a member of staff) proved to be very trying. All of this led to wasted time. Our class was 4-630 pm and at 715 pm, my piece was still incomplete. I ended up having to leave it there as we had reservations at 715 pm, and will have to pick up the finished product later on. I definitely think they need more staff to help people along and stay within the allotted time. Also, they definitely need better stencil sticking paper, because that whole thing was super annoying. The staff were very helpful and kind-- just not enough of them. This will probably be my last time going.

I am absolutely in love with my Lazy Susan that I made, I can't wait to use it and show it off to my friends and family! In my opinion this is an amazing place to have a party, birthday celebration, or any type of gathering.
