Mount Brydges and Strathroy Area
Now, she is bringing that professional expertise to a permanent home in downtown Strathroy. “Brenda built up a remarkable community here,” Heather states. “My goal is to uphold those same values of quality and service that the ABQ family has come to expect. Whether you are a master quilter or someone picking up a needle for the very first time, the Wobbly Bobbin is now your creative home.” The Wobbly Bobbin features a range of classes for seamstresses and embroiderers of all skill levels. They also offer repair services for any Baby Lock machines. Friends and neighbours are invited to swing by for a first look at the new studio and to explore the latest collections during a two- day Grand Opening Open House from Friday, May 8th at 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm and Saturday, May 9th at 10:00 am – 4:00 pm. The event will feature store-wide sales, exciting door prizes, and plenty of goodies to enjoy while browsing. “I want this to be a place where inspiration bleeds from every corner,” Heather explains. “I can’t wait to meet everyone and see what we can create together right here on Centre Street!” More information about Heather and the Wobbly Bobbin is available at www.wobblybobbin.com.
Fresh Face, Same Beating Heart You might spy a friendly new face here in downtown Strathroy.
For years, the ABQ Sewing Studio stood at 15 Centre Street West. It served as a prominent destination for local makers looking for a well- curated, bespoke selection of quilting cottons and garment fabrics. But now, the store has undergone a radical new transformation as the Wobbly Bobbin, which promises the same extensive services and warm, customer-first attitude.
“While the sign on the door is changing, the heart of the busi- ness—a dedication to high-quality supplies, expert instruction, and a welcoming community atmosphere—remains firmly in place,” Owner Heather Cousins explains. “We’re honored to carry on the ABQ Sewing Studio’s legacy!” Heather boasts of over 25 years of sewing and quilting experience. For the past two years, she’s successfully operated the Wobbly Bobbin as a specialized custom sewing service, building a reputation for precision and creativity.
