Looking for a local seamstress

[Rebecca Mason]

Looking for seamstress recommendations if anyone is able to help? I have bought a dress for a wedding this Friday and it could do with being taken in a little. Thanks

I'm very happy to recommend Jo who lives just off Bellenden Road and has done a few bits and pieces for me over the last couple of years. She's lovely and charges v reasonable prices. I found her through the forum and have cut and pasted her original post below:

Hi everyone,

I live locally and just wanted to offer my services as a seamstress and alterations to clothes and soft furnishings.

I have 7 years of training and have over 30 years of sewing under my belt.

So if you need cushions crafting, a dress darned or trousers turned up, I'm your woman!

Please contact me if you'd like a quote.

I'd like to second redjam's recommendation! And also direct you to the original thread, so you can all the others that recommend her:

She tailored some dresses for me, and made a dress for my mother based on a previous dress that had fallen to pieces!
