Clothing Alteration & Repairs

Quality clothes are worth up-keeping. Whether something doesn’t fit quite right anymore, or a favorite vintage piece needs some restoration attention to get back into regular wear, I’m happy to take a look.

I take on a limited number of alterations and repair clients on a case-by-case basis. The work I do best is thoughtful and unhurried, which means I’m selective about what I take on so I can do it correctly and well.

Work I commonly take on:

  • Hems (pants, skirts, dresses. tops)

  • Straps shorten/lengthen

  • Sewing on decorative patches

  • Taking in or letting out seams

  • Waist adjustments

  • Zipper replacement

  • Seam and lining repairs

  • Patching holes and darning

  • Outdoor gear repair

What I’m not the right fit for:

  • Rush jobs or tight turnarounds

  • Formal wear and bridal

  • High-volume or commercial alterations work

What I’ll consider on a case by case basis:

  • Vintage restorations & repair

  • Small batch work

  • Custom sewing projects & pattern drafting

So feel welcome to reach out below with a description of your project and a photo or two. If it sounds like a good fit, we’ll set up a time to look at the pieces together and talk through options. I may be able to give a ballpark estimate over email, but wont give a solid quote until I’ve seen the garment.
