If you thought the company’s cars were a dream, wait until you get a load of its garage!

    WOW! That is truly elegant and sophisticated! A complete 180 of what most upholstery shops look like. I am so inspired!

    RETIRED… NOW THIS IS ENOUGH TO MAKE A MAN COME OUT OF RETIREMENT. WELL LIGHTED, VERY CLEAN LINES AND ORGANIZED LOOKS GOOD ENOUGH TO FRANCHISE. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE NAME OF THE SEWING MACHINE.

    I especially like the bucket seat desk chairs that match the wall color. I have plans to make my computer chair into one of those…maybe even trying to sell them.

    for the right person I’d have something like that in our facility.
    that’s a beautiful set up. nice and clean, very organized, no big pile of material in the corner..
    so who wants to do something in NC with me?

    Great place, but what happened to what the sewers have to sit in? Card table chairs? that was a little off? Every thing else was up scale……
