Advertisement North Shore SINGER APPROVED DEALER GRAND OPENING Statistics show that sewing is on the increase and due to the demand for Singer's top quality machines, new owners Ken Chaudhary and Zafar Manghet chose Marine Plaza near the “Future Shop’ and ‘‘Mark’s Workwear World’ for the location of their new store. The increasing cost of retail fashions has encouraged those who sew to do more of it; and for those who have always wanted to learn to finally get started creating their own fashions. With improved technology today’s sewing machines can sew through nine thicknesses of denim, then go right to sewing lingerie withaut ad- justing the tension. These machines now have built-in blind hemming, stretch stitches, automatic tension and allow you to work with all sorts of stretch fabrics.
