Find trusted alterations services in Lutwyche

Hi everyone! I’m looking for someone around Lutwyche or nearby who is confident with sewing and would be interested in doing occasional clothing alterations for me. Most of the alterations are fairly straightforward, for example: - shortening dresses, trousers or tops - changing long sleeves to short sleeves - shortening jeans while keeping the original hem - other simple adjustments as needed I’m hoping to find someone who enjoys sewing, perhaps sews from home or does alterations privately, and offers reasonable rates compared with commercial alteration shops. Good attention to detail and a neat finish are important to me, and if things work well there would likely be more items from time to time. I’m happy to bring the clothes to you if you’re reasonably close to Lutwyche. If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please send me a message with a little about your sewing experience and, if possible, an idea of your usual pricing. Thank you! 😊

I need multiple pairs of sweatpants resized from L/XL to S I have L and XL that need to be resized to a small. I can provide a small sample and the measurements. Please quote for one pair as I’d want you to do one first as a trial.

I have five dresses I'd love altered. White multicoloured fit and flare dress - extended maybe an inch (photo of this dress won't upload for some reason, but similar to Navy fit and flare) Navy fit and flare dress with tarot symbols - also extended maybe an inch Navy summer dress - oversized version resized to fit me (similar to my current version which is very faded now) White pink and blue summer dress - I currently can't wear this because it's impossible to wear a bra with the current style but I love the pattern and materials. It's a branded Barbie dress. I'd love a suggestion into how to make it wearable. Pink, yellow and blue tent dress - again I love this dress but it's currently too awkwardly sized. It's a print from Yevu who no longer make clothes and I'd love to work with you to make it work for me. Cost is a guide only, I'm open to working with the right person.

Hi Sue, I am reaching out as a friend of a friend recommended you. I need to get some clothes altered.
