Sussie’s Corner in Bukom features a weathered wooden sign hanging above a doorway filled with stacks of iron-cast Singer sewing machines. Inside, the shop maintains hundreds of replacement bobbins and vintage gears that keep local tailors working long after manufacturers stop making parts for older models. Decades ago, Sussie started by selling refurbished machines from her front porch. Now, the shop acts as the unofficial archive for the neighborhood’s tailoring history, stocking specific needles for fabrics that most modern machines cannot handle.
