"We recently purchased a new HQ 16 quilting machine and a new Pfaff Creative 4.0 embroidery machine. Had a great time helping Loren setup quilting machine and table. Lots of fun involved(Barb was gone). Paula and Loren spent a lot of time with us when we purchased the Pfaff. WE returned at a later date to solve some problems and questions we had. Paula was great. We all had a lot of fun together and am looking forward to visiting again soon. Speaking as a male: I was very impressed with presentations and had a great learning experience. Glad I went with Barb. Thanks for everything. I highly recommend any one interested in quilting or sewing/embroidery to stop and visit Paula and Loren at Tri State Sew and Vac in the Indian Hills Mall in Sioux City, Iowa. You won't be sorry."

My New Hobby-Embroidery & Quilting
I purchased a New Pfaff Embroidery Machine from Loren and Paula, a couple of years ago. I went to the store, with the intent of purchasing a new sewing machine, and ended up buying a new embroidery machine. I am amazed at what you can do, and make. It is fantastic- Paula has shown me, many new designs and ideas for things to make. I truly enjoy sewing, and watching projects become my master pieces. Paula and I have enjoyed many laughs and crazy ideas. This is my salvation when I need to de-stress or relax. I love my embroidery machine, and I would love to buy a newer model, but can't justify it - YET!!!! Thanks Loren and Paula for the enjoyment and fun. What great friends.

Great Support
Paula goes over & above to help make the learning curve on my new, complicated sewing machine pleasant and "do-able". Loren's service has been great, too. Phone calls to trouble shoot have been a great help. Their shop has always been clean, bright and cheerful, without unnecessary clutter. If only they were closer (100 miles!)

We have gotten to know Paula and Loren quite well. Probably 8 to 10 years ago, I bought my first embroidery machine from them. Since then, have purchase 3 more embroidery machines & my last being the PFAFF Creative Vision, which I love dearly. Paula has been a big help teaching me how to use it as well as all the other machines. Whenever I have a problem or a question, to the phone I go and help is always on its way. We also have purchased a Lindhaus vac from them, which both my husband and I love. My last adventures with Tri-State Sew & Vac., Inc. was a HQ18 Avante'. Quilting System by the Handi Quilter Company;  I had a HQ-16 which I sold & then purchased the HQ18 Avante'. With both of these machines, I have received great service, alot of learning & sharing of ideas. We are very well satisfied with Tri-State Sew & Vac., Inc.
