Did you know, that Algonquin Sewing Center has been in existence for over 30 years?
Linda Spagnolo was the founder. Linda started the 'Remnant Riot' in her basement, she then moved to Mohns Avenue, and then onto Petawawa Blvd, where she changed the name to Algonquin Sewing Center. Linda retired in 2009 and has since passed in Oct 2022. Our condolences go out to her family.
Cyndi Teather took over in 2009, she owned and operated Algonquin Sewing Center on Petawawa Blvd until her retirement in August 2022. We wish Cyndi all the best in her retirement and look forward to seeing her in the store as a visitor.
Algonquin Sewing Center has since moved to Victoria Street in Petawawa as of August 15th 2022. Within the span of eighty-one days, a group of 23 local quilters joined together, took on the work and renovations of our new store, and ensured the continuation of the beloved Algonquin Sewing Centre business in Petawawa.
