Fashion Makerspace leads this page with 620 Google reviews at a 4.9 average, built almost entirely around its Starter Bundle course, while Stitch4you.sg trails close behind at 470 reviews with a perfect 5.0 for straight machine sales and repair.

Short answer: The most-reviewed sewing destination in Singapore is Fashion Makerspace (4.9 stars, 620 reviews), known for its beginner sewing classes at North Canal Road. For machine sales, service, and repair specifically, Stitch4you.sg (5.0, 470 reviews) in Geylang is the strongest specialist. Elna, Juki, and Janome machines are commonly sold across these stores, but exact prices depend on the model.

  • Named instructors get individual praise for patience and approachability

Ark Industries

5.0249 Google reviews

Ark Industries, at Midview City, is an embroidery and custom apparel service offering logo embroidery, screen printing, and branded merchandise on shirts, caps, jackets, and bags, working with brands like Adidas and Under Armour. It's a custom-apparel supplier rather than a retail sewing machine store, worth knowing upfront if you're shopping for a machine.

What people praise

  • No minimum order quantity on embroidery, unusual for the category
  • Fast turnaround reported across multiple corporate orders
  • High-quality finished product consistently praised

Worth knowing

  • Not a sewing machine retailer, so it won't serve a shopper looking to buy or repair a machine
  • Limited operating hours, closed weekends

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is each business’s live Google star average. Review volume shows how many customers have rated them, measured against the other Singapore sewing and craft businesses we looked at. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from over 600 reviewers carries more weight than a 5.0 from a smaller base. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a sewing machine cost in Singapore? (2026)

None of the businesses on this page publish a fixed price list online, since machine cost varies enormously by brand and model, from entry-level home machines to professional overlockers. Ask for a demo and a written quote before committing to a purchase.

Sewing machine stores across Singapore

The businesses above are spread across North Canal Road, Geylang, Midview City, Ang Mo Kio, and Jalan Pemimpin, covering both central and northern Singapore. Searching for a sewing machine store near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and directions so you can find the closest option.

What to ask before you buy a sewing machine

  • Does the price include a training session or class?
  • What is the warranty period, and does it cover parts and labour?
  • Can I try the machine in-store before buying?
  • Is repair and servicing available locally if something breaks?
  • Does the store carry the specific brand or model I’m interested in?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these sewing machine stores?

We started from sewing machine and craft businesses in Singapore with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Where can I buy a sewing machine and get training on how to use it?

Stitch4you.sg includes a free 1-on-1 training session with every machine purchase, which reviewers say makes a real difference for beginners.

Where can I learn to sew if I don’t own a machine yet?

Fashion Makerspace and Sew Fun @ Marymount both offer beginner classes that don’t require you to already own a sewing machine.

The bottom line

Fashion Makerspace is the safe default if you’re starting from scratch and want a class first, while Stitch4you.sg is the strongest pick once you’re ready to actually buy a machine. Either way, ask whether training is included in the price.
