Sewing a smile into the world
I provide alterations & tailoring for clothing & home items, from jeans & everyday wear to curtains, bridal gowns & prom dresses. My studio is fully equipped to ensure the perfect fit, with a heated private fitting room & space for family or friends to join fittings.
All appointments are relaxed & unhurried, giving you time to try on garments before & after adjustments. Whether it’s a simple hem or a special occasion outfit, your items are tailored with care & precision.
I offer sewing lessons from beginner to intermediate level, including craft sewing, bag making, overlocker skills & dressmaking. Children’s classes (age 9+) are also available with a parent/guardian present. Lessons are 1:1 or with friends if booked together, plus seasonal workshops throughout the year.
All classes are held in my fully equipped studio with everything provided. Beginner, overlocker & children’s sessions include fabric, & you can choose from set classes or a tailor-made plan to suit your skills & project.
