Brighton Sewing Centre & Morris Works: Your Premier Sewing Hub in Hove

Welcome to our newly combined Brighton Sewing Centre and Morris Works, located at Unit 2, Chapel Mews, Hove, East Sussex, BN3 1AR, it's more than just a shop—it's where your next sewing creation begins.

Who We Are

Since our establishment in 2010, Brighton Sewing Centre has been a trusted destination for quality sewing machines, originally located in the North Laines of Brighton. For the past 14 years, we have dedicated ourselves to offering a carefully curated selection of Janome, Brother, and Bernina machines. Our commitment extends beyond just selling machines; we focus on fostering a community of passionate creators. Whether you’re in search of a new sewing machine, embroidery machine, or overlocker, our knowledgeable team is here to guide you to the perfect choice. We take pride in providing expert advice and comprehensive aftercare, ensuring that your equipment remains in pristine condition. Our servicing and repair expertise ensures that your machines continue to perform at their best for years to come.

While our recent emphasis has been on sewing machines, we previously offered a variety of fabrics and haberdashery that added a touch of creativity to our offerings. We are now thrilled to expand our horizons by joining forces with Morris Works, a name synonymous with high-quality quilting and textile supplies. Established in 2022 by Gabrielle and William Morris, Morris Works specialises in 100% cotton fabrics, quilting kits, and unique patchwork tools. Their dedication to providing premium UK-made supplies has quickly earned them a respected place in the fabric community.
