Carlin was fantastic! She is super friendly, timely, honest, and knowledgeable. I had a bridesmaid dress that was way too long and had some weird details on the back. I asked if there was any way we could remove the weird netting on the back of my dress and instead add a bow, and she absolutely nailed it! We ended up hemming, lowering the slit by adding a stitch right above the knee, and adding a bow to the back. She found a great color/fabric match for the bow and was done very quickly (about a week and a half). Pricing was fair! Overall, had a great experience with her and would absolutely recommend for anyone! read more

Carlin's Tailoring & Alterations - My wedding dress - Sewing & Alterations Near Me

I needed several pairs of jeans hemmed and had no idea who to go to! I messaged a few places and Carlin was the most responsive, messaging me back almost right away. She asked me to call her and I shared details of what I needed done and a couple days later I went in to drop off the jeans. She was very thorough in asking the type of shoe I wear, how I wanted the jeans to look, and in measuring. She charged a small rush fee since I needed one of the pairs the next day, but it was so worth it! She kept the original hems and they look great. Highly recommend! read more

Carlin took length off my wedding dress, bustled my train, and when I'd grown out of it between dropping it off and picking it up (unexpected pregnancy does that), she held on to the dress and let it out an inch for no extra fee. She is so kind, patient and lovely to be around, and to alter the dress did not cost as much as the dress itself. read more
