Called Susan and she was free to meet to work on my old winter coat with the broken zipper. She was prompt and so cheap! When I picked it up looked totally brand new, and only $35 bucks. Next time I will use her for more challenging projects. :-) read more

Susan does a fabulous job. Accommodated my tight schedule too. Cant recommend her enough!

I contacted Susan a few months before Halloween in desperate need of some fixes to the cape of a Darth Vader costume that I have been putting together for several years. She was completely accommodating in what I needed to have fixed for the costume/cape, suggested some ideas to make it even better, and I could not be any happier with how it turned out, the costume looks exactly the way I've wanted it to. Halloween was absolute hit with the trick-or-treaters this year and much of that is thanks to her. Definitely recommend read more

Susan was great and did exactly/more than what I was hoping for. I brought in my plan to get a costume made in time for Halloween and a new movie premiere and she was more than accommodating with my wants and needs. I provided the material myself because I was picky about what I wanted it to be, but Susan provided her own ideas and options along the way. In the end the costume turned out great and I received an endless stream of compliments. By the way, this address is her home so don't get confused like I did when I was searching around. read more

Susan did a great job altering my new puffer coat! It now looks like it was made for me.

Susan did a phenomenal job. I had her hem a Jenny Yoo bridesmaid dress last summer and I couldn't even tell where the original stitches ended and hers started. I also had a really nice leather jacket that I'd been holding on for years (it just didn't fit right so I never wore it) and she was able to take it in and now it's hands down my favorite. When I look at the lining on the jacket I can hardly even tell anyone made alterations. I will definitely be back to have her alter more. read more

Although Susan is a nice person in some regards, she was blatantly dishonest with me on several occasions and damaged my jacket. We needed two simple patches sewn on a letterman jacket sleeve. I met with Susan, who closely inspected and received the jacket and patches. The next day, I received a text from her saying that she couldn't do the job now. She gave me several different excuses about why she couldn't. When I picked up the jacket it was damaged. There were sewing tracks on the leather sleeve outside of where the patches go, and the patches were not put on. Now I am out $300 for a replacement jacket and our student won't have a school jacket for another month. This is my first negative review but I highly caution against using this company based on poor ethics and lack of professionalism. read more

Took my daughter's dress to her for alterations for her high school dance. She said she could get it done before the dance,. Went to pick it up, my daughter tried it on and it still didn't fit and she told us she did not have time to fix it before the dance. We noticed stains on the dress and was told the stains were there when we brought it to her. It was a brand new dress with no stains when we took it to her. She was very unprofessional and demanded payment or she would keep the dress. My daughter was in tears and we had to buy her another new dress for prom. I would not recommend this business at all. read more

I originally came to Susan in March of this year to have the top of my wedding dress recreated, she assured me she would be able to create my gown as described by mid July and that she'd contact me once she received the appropriate material. A month later I contacted her after not hearing from her, it was then that she told me she had the material and to come in for a fitting. I did this, and then scheduled our next fitting for 2 weeks from then. The day of my second fitting she texted me to reschedule for a week later. So three weeks from my first fitting I went to Susan for my second fitting and nothing was done, the dress was in pieces. We then scheduled a third fitting for 2 weeks from then, the morning of she texted me to reschedule for a week later. She said she overbooked herself, and hasn't had time to get to my dress. Why she didn't notify me earlier, instead of the morning of I don't understand. Finally a week later, over two months from originally meeting with Susan I had my third fitting, the dress still in pieces, little to no improvement from the previous fitting three weeks prior. Long story short I went to pick up my dress the first week of August, a month later then she promised, it still wasn't finished. At this point I wasn't happy with her inability to commit to me or the time frame we committed to. Although beautiful the dress wasn't what we planned and I had zero confidence in Susan's ability to finish it in time. I decided I'd have better luck starting from scratch and buying a new dress. I expressed my concerns to Susan and she acted very unprofessionally and personally offended. At that point she expected payment in full for a unfinished dress. After rescheduling every one of my appointments, her poor project management skills and being over a month late she refused to come to a payment agreement, she gave me the choose to pay in full or forfeit my dress. Throughout the 6 months of "working" with Susan she kept saying it's a process, it takes time while constantly rescheduling me and putting my dress on the back burner. It wasn't until a week before her deadline that she actually starting putting the dress together. Susan seems like a nice woman, however I have zero confidence in Susan's ability to project manage or commit to a schedule. I wouldn't recommend hiring her for any work that has a time requirement, as she shows no ability to prioritize. 6 months to create the top of a dress is a ridiculous amount of time, and the manner that she handled me and her dress was absolutely horrible. I recommended seeking a legitimate business, that stands behind their work and word and if they're unable to do so they make it right. read more

I bought a suit that ended up needing quite a few alterations. Susan did a great job measuring, identifying what needed to be changed and helping recommend how to tackle. There were the usual sleeve and pant length adjustments (I'm taller than average), but also some tougher ones like tapering the pant legs, adjusting the seat (I have no butt) and fixing the width of the jacket and jacket sleeves. I picked up the final product a short time later, according to what we had agreed - and the fit is perfect! You can't tell that it was altered, and I didn't have to go back with any changes at all. My wife is hard to please and even she thinks the suit fits perfectly now - we're both very impressed. I'll definitely be going back to Susan for future needs. read more

Susan is wonderful. I recently contracted her to sew me a lace temple dress based on one I had seen in a photo online. Susan helped me figure out what fabric to use and worked around my schedule to come do multiple fittings. She did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have something custom made or altered. read more

I strongly recommend Susan at Charmed Life Sewing for your sewing, alterations, and embroidery needs. I needed alterations to a new suit and my wife stumbled upon Susan after searching through various review sites and then making some calls (turns out, there seems to be a relative dearth of quality tailors and seamstresses in Salt Lake County). We are delighted to have found a consummate professional whom we trust based on her competence, cost, kindness, and speed. Despite very clearly having no shortage of demand for her services (seriously, at least three other customers came and went in the twenty minutes I was first onsite for a fitting), Susan was willing to accommodate our request same day and scheduled me for a fitting within two hours of our call, early on a Saturday afternoon. She was meticulous in her measurements. She proactively offered a second fitting, after she made an initial set of adjustments, so that I could try the suit on and make sure I was happy before she finalized the stitching. Upon return, her finished work product was spot on. Throughout the process, she kept me apprised of progress through text and phone, was willing to accommodate my schedule, delivered on time and on cost (which was very affordable), all as promised. And as importantly, she was a very pleasant and kind individual with whom to interact throughout. I've already recommended her services to friends and family and certainly plan to return as needs arise. read more

I contacted Susan after finding her on Yelp. She's been wonderful to work with. She altered the sleeves on my daughter's baptism dress & they now look & fit beautifully. Plan on coming back to her again if I ever need any more alteration or sewing help. read more

I needed a pleated strap on a dress shortened really fast for a wedding in a few days. Susan had it done in a day and it looks amazing. She also had the perfect solution for covering the gap on the side that showed my bra. She is kind, knowledgeable and did great work!! I will go to her again! Thank you! read more
