Not here. Here it is the Amish that don't use electric. The menonites have stores and this place even fixes sewing machines! I went there today to get a bobbin casing that I lost. Only $14 and they adjusted the tension which is good because I have no idea where to even look to adjust that!

Same here in PA. In fact, my Bernina dealer is Mennonite.

That is very good prices!
If they do mail order, I will gladly send them a quilt just to check out the quilting.
Let us know if you find out anything more about this place.

That seems dirt cheap even for an all over pattern.

Same here. The Amish don't have electric,Mennonites do. They also have cars/trucks & go to diff areas to settle it.Each family has their own business & sometimes more than one.Maybe they are trying to get established by having low prices....or might be, they can make a profit by having a lot of customers.Do they do mail order?
