The selection of locally sourced/dyed yarn was lovely, and she had samples knitted up of different yarns nearby. The colorways were gorgeous! It's a small space but it's well organized by source for the yarn, and the yarn is definitely showcased. There were also notions like cute handmade stitchmarkers and Miss Purl needle sizers. I hadn't known, but apparently Sundays are open knitting days, so there was a group of knitters and crocheters who seemed to be having a real fun time together. I bought a skein of yarn, and they even prepped it into a center pull ball for me, which was a life saver as I don't have a lazy Kate. Will definitely be returning for future projects!

I placed my order, was told to come back at a certain time, and when I arrived my order was pretty much ready. (I ordered 4 shirts and the employee was working on the last 2 when I arrived, which was fine.) The second time I used Stitch by Stitch, it was much more of a hassle. I placed my order in the store and I was told to come back the next day. He didn't give a specific time so I assumed I could come anytime during the day. I tried calling before I came to assure that my order was completed but no one answered the phone. I ended up coming to the store to check on my order, in spite of the fact that I couldn't get in contact with anyone to confirm that my order was ready. I arrived at 1pm. At that time, I was told that my shirt wouldn't arrive until after 4pm but the design was ready. I asked if I could see the design, then found out that he lied. The design wasn't ready yet either. This wasn't a big deal though. He designed it right then and there and I was able to provide feedback, which was nice. He then instructed me to return after 5pm. I came at 6pm and my shirt still wasn't ready. He reassured me that he would do mine next and that it would be ready in an hour. I came back at 7pm and, of course, the shirts still aren't ready. The owner is a very kind guy! He went above and beyond to assure that I liked the shirt but he needs more help. He was working by himself and several people came in to find that their order wasn't complete. Don't use this service if you don't have a little extra time to spare. It's also pretty pricey...

That's impressive, folks. Print X-Press got back to me with a quote within a few hours, but beyond that communication among the office members was fairly disjointed. Normally it wouldn't be a huge deal when our print job would be ready (by the hour), but when things are rushed, a few hours makes a big difference. Regardless, our job was completed, looked great, and prices were cheaper (by quite a bit) compared to the local Kinko's. Next time we need a quick print job in the city, I'll likely use Print X-Press again.

I cannot say enough great things about Great Looks and Tailoring! From the moment I stepped into the store, I was met with professionalism, warmth, and a true passion for fashion and precision. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to understand exactly what you need, whether it's a simple alteration, a full custom-made outfit, or expert style advice. The attention to detail here is unmatched. Every stitch, every adjustment, and every recommendation is made with care, ensuring a perfect fit every time. They treat each customer like family, making sure you leave not only satisfied but also feeling your absolute best. The turnaround time is excellent, and the quality of work speaks for itself. Whether you're preparing for a big event, refreshing your wardrobe, or simply need a reliable place for all your tailoring needs, Great Looks and Tailoring is the place to go. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch service and impeccable results! read more

Great looks tailoring is by far the best place I have found for alteration and dry cleaning services. They get anything done on time and for a great price.
