    She only accepts cash, also refused a refund when work was not done correctly. Do not go here!! I wish there was a zero rating.

    Find another seamstress!!!! Dropped of 20 pairs of cargo…read morepants to be hemmed on 2-10-2026 was told it would take a week or two. Contacted Amy Henley on 02-25-2026, 03-12-2026, and 03-18-2026, no responce to calls or text. Had to reach out to another tenant in the building to find out when she would be there. Went and retrieved my items on 03-18-2026, none had been done, was NOT offered a refund on the $300 I paid her. She just asked me to leave them there so she could finished them, she hadnt even started them in over a month!!! WOW!!!!

    On November 12, 2005, I dropped off my winter jacket for repair of the liner and had to pay $60.00…read morein advance for the work that she said would take about a week. After ten days, I texted Stitch Dr. asking the new estimated pickup date. She did not reply. On December 3 she responded to my call, telling me that she had been in Richmond, and that her workspace had no heat and she could not work there. I gave her another 43 days to resolve her difficulties, and then called her phone number on January 15th, 16th, and 21st, each time leaving a voicemail asking that she facilitate my picking up my jacket, repaired or not. She did not reply to any of my calls. With severe weather conditions approaching, I decided to go to her shop unannounced to retrieve my winter jacket. I found the door locked, and no lights on. On my way out, her landlord was in the parking lot, and I asked if they knew of any reason Stitch Dr. might be unable to communicate. I told them the story of these delays and her failure to communicate, and after providing them with a detailed description of the jacket, the liner, and even an Italian Lira note sewn into the liner, they escorted me to her shop where I spotted the leather of my unrepaired property on the bottom of a tall pile of garments stacked in a chair, not even hung up as would be proper and expected. I retrieved my property just in time for the approaching Winter storm. Her landlord said there had never been a problem with the heat in the building. She still has the $60.00 I paid her. After 72 days of waiting for her to answer calls and texts, I mailed her a synopsis of this debacle and a stamped, self-addressed envelope so she could effortlessly send my $60.00 to me. 35 days later, she has not responded.

    Extremely disappointing experience--would not recommend for bridal alterations…read more I brought multiple dresses here for my daughter's wedding, including her bridal gown, and it turned into a nightmare. The wedding dress came back completely unwearable--shoulders didn't fit, buttons were falling off, seams were uneven, and the stitching was coming undone. We had to buy a replacement dress just days before the wedding. Other dresses, including the reception gown and a bridesmaid dress, also had major issues. I gave the owner every opportunity to make things right--she acknowledged the problems and agreed to issue refunds. But after weeks of follow-ups, nothing was processed, and I've now been blocked from contacting her. I've been more than fair, even offering to absorb the cost of the original dress, just to resolve this peacefully. Instead, I was left with added stress, financial loss, and no accountability. Please think twice before trusting this business with anything as important as a wedding gown. I would never want another bride or family to go through what we did.

    From the owner: Hello Brides and future Brides!…read more My name is Alexis, I am the owner and podcast host of Love & Lace. My bridal shop is located in SML. My business provides brides with stylish designer dresses and accessories along with customized alterations, which you will not have to purchase a dress by me to have alterations done. But if you do say yes to the dress at my shop you will get 25% off your alterations! I have been partnering with Sweet Indulgence Bakery to make each bride‘s Bridal appointment experience much more satisfying with a cake tasting box. I look forward to every appointment booked; I can’t wait to meet you all!
