I just wanted to say a big thank you for the wonderful service you offer.

I ordered x3 advent panels on line yesterday-that was Tuesday afternoon at 3pm, they arrived here in Suffolk at 12md today, Wednesday, delivered by by the good old postman.

Already cut out and for sewing tomorrow.

That’s such wonderful service, I don’t know how you did it but fantastic.

I’m very happy with my purchase. Was dealt with very well and patiently through the demonstration of the machine. Excellent service.

Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Showed us how a variety of machines worked, gave demonstrations and let my daughter try the 2 machines she was interested in. No pushing or rushing to make a decision. Would definitely recommend them. A lovely local business.

Exceptional service, thank you so much! Came to buy a sewing machine and asked if I could test one out. Not only did I get that, I was given a full demonstration and tuition & all my questions answered. It was no problem to try a second machine, and test out different presser feet. Absolutely lovely staff, very patient, & no hard sell. Steph even carried the machine out to the car for me. Came away with the perfect machine for my needs, and a load of good tips, including sewing machine care. If only all businesses were run like this! You’ve won a loyal customer here.

Just wanted to say again thank you Hobkirks for amazing service. You have a great selection of machines, accessories, materials etc for customers to choose from with the expertise and knowledge of your professional team. I purchased a brother sewing machine ,7 year warranty and machine bag from yourselves. This was down to your amazing colleague Elaine of whom had time and patience with me, teaching me how to set up and use the machine I purchased, about the benefits of the 7 year warranty and the £10 machine bag. Thank you so much Elaine and all the hobkirk team.

I’ve shopped at Hobkirks for a long time - always received super service and everyone is very helpful. I don’t get to Blackburn very often now unfortunately but staff are equally helpful on the phone with super fast delivery

I have recently found Hobkirks and am impressed every time I go. The staff are helpful, knowledgeable and approachable; the choice of products are varied and cater for many interests. It is my go-to store for material, haberdashery and machine advice
