Very helpful staff. Fabric a good value for money. Large selection of haberdashery. Come the day I finish my fabric stash or need something different I’d shop here again.

Xj1upgrade
First time I bought from home of sewing did so because they were cheaper then anywhere else. Upgrade package was the same as from anywhere else really was a no brainier. Package was with me within 2 days as promised. No doubt I will buy from them again.
Top rate service
I placed my order but unfortunatly forgot to add a promotion code. I then phoned Regent Home of Sewing and explained to Keith, who resolved the problem for me. I have recieved my goods in good time and beautifully packed. I will definatly shop again with this supplier.
I am so excited with my recent purchase…
I am so excited with my recent purchase at Regent Home of Sewing in Ilford. I’ve found a very professional and enthusiastic staff, giving me the best advice according to my needs and requirements. I knew that they can provide me the best knowledge about sewing machines as per this business is on place for ages. Very trustable company and very amicable service. Excellent!!
Highly recommend this shop!
I discovered this shop while looking for a place to service my sewing machine, and I'm so glad I did. From the moment I called to inquire about charges, I could tell this place was different.
The customer service is exceptional, and the staff are genuinely passionate and knowledgeable about their work. As someone who isn’t a professional seamstress, I appreciated how welcoming and helpful everyone was—they made sure I had all the information I needed without making me feel judged or out of place.
It was a very special experience to buy…
It was a very special experience to buy from this business. Jon took every trouble to talk me through my requirements for my new overlocker. I bought it over the phone in the afternoon and just before 7pm he arrived and set it up for me! He showed me how to thread it and went through various options and tips with me. He even made an adjustment to my Bernina sewing machine and took away my old overlocker to overhaul it. I would thoroughly recomment this lovely family-pwned establishment.
Fabulous!
The communication of an out of stock item I ordered was very quick. They fulfilled my request of possibly matching plain fabrics with the fabrics I'd ordered as the jelly roll was not available.
Fast service delivery on time

I have used this shop for many years now . The knowledge and service is incredible. I have never been pushed into a purchase by any member of their staff . John who deals with the sewing machines is one of the kindest and nicest people I’ve ever met. His demeanour and personality are second to none .

Customer service is brilliant
Customer service is brilliant, providing a relaxed, friendly and helpful advice. Regents have a wide range of products. It is quite easy to spend hours there.
At my recent visit they diagnosed the problem with my sewing machine within minutes of arriving and provided advice on what to do in the future.
I have always without reservation recommend Regents for anyone's sewing needs.
