Overview on Textiles |

Welcome to The Spark's Textiles collection! Our machines and kits are used to help you achieve different types of projects for class or personal use. Users must bring their own fabric for sewing and embroidery and materials must be approved before use. In order to use the embroidery machine, you must first go through training and then sign up for an operator appointment to use it. For our sewing machines, you must go through training before you can use them. |
