The Workroom is an absolutely beautiful fabric store - likely the nicest I've been in. With most…read moreof the Queen West stores just stuffed with bolts and bolts of fabric, and (my beloved) Fabricland being fairly far out of my way and only carrying the Big Four patterns, The Workroom is a lovely alternative, with a good selection of indie patterns and curated designer fabric selections. The staff are generally friendly and knowledgeable. My only "complaint", which isn't really a complaint, is that it's quite expensive compared to the alternatives. I recognize that this is a small business and they need to make money, and stock independent pattern companies and more unique fabrics...but I just find that even with their sale weekends and promotions such as "spend x and get y percentage off", the savings are rarely significant enough for me to actually participate.

I…read morecouldn't find the size I wanted, so one of the women there spent a good 3-5 minutes with me opening boxes in the back trying to find it.This was only for a $0.50 zipper! The staff are quite nice and try to get you what you need. It is a bit messy/cramped as previous reviews have stated, so save yourself some time by asking staff for help if you haven't been here before. The fabric selection is okay but not the best if you are looking for a variety of colours or a particular shade. It is a better store for neutral colours (black, grey, white) in heavy fabrics or tule. If you are looking for the thin cotton material though, they have a variety of colours and probably the cheapest prices I know at $2.99/ a yard. Tip: If you are buying numerous things here, try to bargain a little with one of the two women there. Save a few bucks. They are more accommodating than the two other men. ^^

NOT RECOMMENDED! I…read morecalled about repairs to our Elna 9000 sewing machine. The owner offered to perform a tune-up for $60. He said that repairs may not be possible because the sewing machine is more than 30 years old and replacement parts would be hard to find, but agreed to try. I schlepped our sewing machine out to the World Sew Centre location in Agincourt Mall. The owner never called me -- I always had to call him for status updates. He told me that the machine's hook gear and possibly the bobbin case needed to be replaced and gave me only a vague estimate of the cost of the repair. He offered me no suggestions on where to find the parts. I did my own research and sent him an e-mail with my findings, asking him to confirm that the parts I found were the correct parts needed for the repair. The owner never replied to the e-mail. I called him to ask if the parts I found were indeed the correct parts. He said he never received the e-mail (unlikely!) and that, anyway, he would not repair a machine using third-party parts (?!). Incompetent and unprofessional!
