Good local seamstress/tailor/alteration service recommendations


Recommended Posts

  • 4 weeks later...
Just to add if anyone is looking for a good alterations service I used Friends of Fabric on Bellenden Road and they did a fantastic job with my dress. The price was extremely reasonable (after some very expensive quotes from other seamstresses!). I would highly recommend their service.

I asked Annie to take care of shortening a long gown I chose to wear for a wedding (as a guest). Not only did she manage to place me in her busy schedule to fit my tight deadline, she also came to my place for a first fitting to establish what I needed (making sure I was wearing the shoes I'll have at the wedding to amend the length of the skirt accordingly) and came back to my place after amending the dress for a second fitting to make sure everything was to my liking. And if that wasn't enough, she touched up a few sequins that were threatening to go.


The alteration was perfect, her attention to details exceeded my expectations, the service as well as the overall experience are very tailored and I find the service at home extremely practical... oh and my dress is ready just on time! No need to say I'm extremely happy and deeply grateful. For those who wonder, the quality / price is well balanced.


Apparently, as well as expensive gowns, she can take care of suits, trousers, curtains, cushions... Have a chat with her 07 956 527 824.

    • Local councillors,  over the many years that the boards have been installed, have rarely updated them. Details of councillors surgeries were posted by party supporters.    
    • If you speak to the reception you should be able to get a free gym induction as part of your membership. Not enough people actually get guidence on how to use the equipment properly and therefore either don't get the best out of it or injure themselves. After the refurb I booked an induction so I learnt how to adjust the new equipment because despite attending there for about 10years I was used to the old machines and equipment and at my age (64) I really did'nt want to faff around not knowing how adjust things correctly. As regards advance booking classes I know for sure you used to be able to book a class 10days in advance but not sure about 2 weeks. Good luck in the gym!
    • Wtf. The word in Greek is the “n” word for Black women. Why would someone open a business under this name? People should boycott instead of commenting on food. 
    • Good on you for doing something rather than some who would prefer to complain about what others are doing.  Enjoyed the read and look forward to seeing more of the meals from the area.   There's are some great substack newsletters out there for local news and exploration. Love to see it.
