    Holes in two beloved cashmere sweaters were repaired beautifully (and invisibly). I definitely will use Frayed Threads again.

    A great job was done in two sweater, reasonable prices and decent turn around time for the size of the business.

    Rachel did a great job with my clothes! It was so easy to book and was reasonably priced. I will definitely be back if I need more mending.

    Amazing for both tailoring and mending. Communication was very clear. Cost was upfront.

    I had a favorite batik handbag repaired and a zipper replaced in an heirloom jacket. They look great, and the price was reasonable.

    Rachel did an amazing job getting it to fit me and would still have possibility to adjust it back if needed.

    Ann is a JOY! She owns Elen Villa and is professional, talented, attentive and SO GOOD at what she…read moredoes. I've brought 9 dresses to her so far, and from minor tweaks in the length, to full on "this dress does not fit please help" - she has made each and every one fit like a glove! Ann has an incredible eye for seeing exactly what needs to be done, and she does it so quickly. I build in 2-3 weeks before I need an outfit for an event, to be respectful of her time and talents, and many other clients, and she always delivers. I am absolutely thrilled to have found her and her skills. She's a delight and so fun to chat with as well - I cannot recommend Elen Villa Alterations enough!

    I have mixed feelings about this place, and want to note that I did not end up getting anything…read morealtered here. It came HIGHLY recommended by good friends of mine. A couple of other factors - the seamstress was going on vacation in so her calendar was really booked up for the next 4 weeks. I attempted to get a dress hemmed and altered, unfortunately due to her going on vacation she wouldn't be able to hem it at all, so we looked at just shortening the spaghetti straps that were too loose on me - $38. I was shocked! The folks before me got their pants hemmed and a shirt repair for about that much total. She was very understanding when I changed my mind and decided to shop around more, but in hindsight I wonder if I was charged more because she was really booked, didn't want the job, etc. Or maybe shes just pricey? Who knows. Mixed feeling and mixed review, again I've heard great things but not sure I'll be back myself.

    Lol, wtf, I don't even know how this place is still open. By far one of the worst customer service…read moreexperiences I've had in my life. If I could give this place 0 stars for customer service, I would. I should have listened to the reviews here because after writing this up I think it will reinforce the woman's rudeness. This is located on the northeast side of the Northgate Mall. I was running errands in the area, so I figured to go here to get ~5 pairs of jeans hemmed and tapered while out and about maybe about a month ago. The woman there points at the dressing room and tells me to go change. No greeting, no hello, just asks me what I want and points to the dressing room. I put on the first pair and come out for her to put the pins in, mark, whatever she needs to do. At this point, this is where it all went downhill from here. She used push pins (not safety pins) to take the pants in and shorten the pants. She mutters under her breath, I have no idea wtf is going on, or whether I upset her. I go back into the dressing room, and I'm wondering how the fk to take off these pants off safely without stabbing myself with these pins and ruining her pinning. Unfortunately, I stabbed myself a couple times in the foot trying to take off the pants and try on another pair. I might also add, I am a petite person, but these dressing rooms are pretty uncomfortably tight. I come out and let her know that the push pins have been plucking me in the foot from the other pair and ask if there is a different way to pin up the pants. Well, she doesn't see to give a flying fk, and proceeds to do the same thing to these pants. I fear taking the pants off again. So after 5+ minutes of attempting to take off the pants, I come out and ask her if it's ok to just hem these 2 pants (because I don't want to go through needle hell again). Apparently this made her really angry. She raises her voice and tells me that I'm wasting her time, and why can't I try on the other jeans. My partner who was with me at the time, was waiting in the seating area and looked up at the commotion. At this point I was sick of her rude sh*t and told her "I think I'll go somewhere else." Then she again tells me I am wasting her time and tells me to take out the pins myself and put it in her push pin holder. I really wanted to give her a chance and take the past reviews with a grain of salt, but it really is not worth it to come by here. I don't know if she is going through some hard times and wants to project her poor attitude on her customers or what. Whatever it is, I hope she gets the help she needs.

    Generally a rude human being…read more I gave her the benefit of the doubt even after reading all the bad reviews. And the fact that shes a non English speaker as I am too and I know its just the structure of speaking a different language some times. I even forgave her for not even looking at me or saying hello after i said Hi. She just grunted. I brought out my sportscoats from my bag and she grew impatient going "hurry up! I'm busy!" "You see I'm busy?" "What do you want?" I just needed my sleeves shortened and that was $45 for one coat. She just walked away after stating her price and didnt even inquire as to if I'd like to put down a work order. I gave my business to Nordstroms because it was the same price with a smile and treated me like a human being. She doesnt deserve my money nor yours. I wouldnt even stop by this place again to watch it burn down.

My wife and I were in a pinch to get our wedding dresses altered (due to taking a while finding the best dress) before our elopement in August. I reached out to several alterations places end of and they didn't have availability and were booking for fall weddings, it wasn't looking great. I was then referred to Iwona, and she was so reassuring and was very open to not only taking on my dress to be completed by Aug 1, but also my wife's dress. Iwona altered both of our dresses in tandem and kept both of them a secret to the other because we wanted a big surprise. Each of us went in for several quick sessions a few weeks in a row, it was so easy. She is a wizard at altering dresses, it is truly incredible the work she does. The number of hours and details and precision that goes into each dress that has to be exactly what the bride wanted. Iwona- you are truly so talented! I also typically do not like dresses and was not looking forward to wearing one when I was shopping, but when I met Iwona for initial consultation and talked about alterations, I felt reassured it could turn out really great. She made the dress I found come to life and feel so flattering through her alterations. She is so kind as a person and skilled at what she does, and I felt like we were on the same page the whole time. She even finished the dresses a few weeks before the date we decided just in case we wanted more adjustments. She absolutely puts 100% in her projects and is a powerhouse seamstress Iwona made me feel really beautiful in my dress and I can't thank you enough!! My wife's dress turned out so wonderfully, it was such a fun surprise to have a first look at our dresses and see Iwona's magic. I wish I had more dresses for Iwona to alter! I couldn't recommend Iwona enough for trusting someone with altering your wedding dresses. Thank you so much Iwona for your wonderful work and kindness.

Bonnie made me feel immediately comfortable with her super responsive email communications (providing a very accurate estimate) and her enthusiasm during our first appointment. I felt so so at ease knowing that she had so much experience with alterations. Additionally, she only takes a certain number of customers so you know that you will get the best service! That said, due to this reason you will have to get on her list very early before your event date. During the final try-on she was so supportive and energetic about the look of the dress. It was such an infectious energy and I felt like we were good friends by the end of the process. Thanks so much again Bonnie!
