    Christine was awesome! I would only recommend her for any of your alteration needs. I ordered my wedding gown from Spain and they took my measurements when I was visiting there in store but it still needed a lot of work. It is also a non-traditional wedding gown with thick fabric, a lot of straight beading, long sleeves, high neck, and a VERY LONG train. Christine was so creative about how to get the perfect bustle which took a lot longer than normally would, but she was so calm and always seemed to have a solution. She also is very knowledgable about making sure the dress will let you walk, dance, sit, look good in different picture poses. When I had my second fitting, something still didn't feel right about it, so we did a few more adjustments and then next time it was PERFECT! She is the best price for the best work! A couple of my bridesmaids also went to her and they had great experiences and looked great.

    I reached out to Christine about a month before my wedding and she was able to do what I needed within two weeks! Everything about the process was easy, stress free and I was extremely happy with the results. I was also happy she gave me the extra fabric from my dress because I was able to wrap it around my bouquet.

    Christine was so lovely to work with and so reasonably priced! I was really worried that my wedding dress would be difficult to hem because of its beadwork throughout, but she had some great out of the box ideas that worked perfectly! She was also completely open to my suggestions and changes. In the end, she finished the work weeks early and the dress held up the whole night of me traipsing around a grassy field! One of the best vendors I worked with during my wedding!

    Christine did an absolutely wonderful job on my wedding dress! Not only did she have to take in the whole dress, but she also had to take off about 6 inches at the bottom with three different fabric layers. Christine was wonderfully creative in altering the dress- she cut the bottom of the dress so the layers of tulle, lace, and satin could all be seen AND she added a train. I wasn't very excited about the idea of a train, but Christine and my mom convinced me it would look beautiful- and it did! She also did a wonderful job on a bridesmaid's dress and the flower girls' dress. Beyond being an amazing seamstress, this woman has a soft and gentle spirit. She was never anything but kind, even though she received my dress a month before the wedding! I highly recommend her to anyone in the twin cities looking for alterations!

    Thank you Christine for the amazing work you did on my wedding gown! I was worried about the dress because it was backless, lace and I couldn't wear a bra. But Christine sewed bra cups into it and altered it so it fit just right. She was so patient with me and returned my calls so quickly. I will definitely use Christine again for any of my alteration needs.

    I had a great experience with Christine's sewing Alterations! I needed to have my bridesmaids dress hemmed and Christine was able to fit me in. Her prices were standard and fair, her turn around time was fast and she was so nice! I will be on the hunt for my own wedding dress soon and Christine's Sewing Alterations will be my first stop if I need my dress fitted/altered!

    Wedding Dress (Bustled)

    Christine did such an amazing job on my dress! It was very loose when I brought it to her and the dress had a lot of detail but she was able to turn it into exactly what I imagined! 100% would recommend her!

    Christine was great! She was very careful with my dress and to be sure she got everything just the way I wanted it. The bustle was lovely and she made sure someone came to an appointment with me to learn how to bustle it up. All around, I was very impressed with her work and would recommend her to any bride or bridesmaid. Very professional. And very nice, too!

    Perfect fit!

When I saw it on the hanger there was a stain on the material, which is thin and now needs to be dry cleaned. He also lost the spare button so now the sleeve is missing a button and he didn't reinforce the other buttons like I requested and paid for. More importantly, when I brought it to his attention, he yelled at me when I told him about the stain and said I sounded "like the other women who complain" , grabbed my dress , which I grabbed back because it was already paid for. Then, he raised his fist in preparation to strike me, and yelled at me. I left the store. He yelled at me to leave when I got in my car. I called for help inside my car and he charged towards my car. I locked the doors and he started banging on my window with cash in his hand saying, "just take it." I never asked for a refund, even though he didn't do the job right. He wouldn't go away so I had to call the police. I don't know what this man's problem is, but don't go here. This man is violent.
