I'm totally torn about this place, so here goes.
I recently had to get a bridesmaid dress altered, so I wanted somewhere highly recommended to go and Sew Easy got the thumbs up from my fellow Yelpers. Since it was a bridesmaid dress, I was pretty nervous about the hands I'd trust to make the changes. While I was there, I had another floor length dress I wanted to have a small alteration made to so I popped along with both.
Firstly, this place is BUSY... so try to avoid any peak times to pop in. It was a bit chaotic - they got me to try on the bridesmaid dress, pinned it to size and then took the instructions for my other dress (without trying on which I thought was strange). After quoting me a figure for them both - it was on the pricier side - I paid in cash (they don't take cards) and said to come back in a week.
On my return a week later, the dress wasn't ready. So I went back the next day, where the bridesmaid dress was done (HUZZAH), but my other one hadn't even been touched and I needed it for the next night so it was too late. Although I did get a refund, I'm not sure why they gave me a dress back which clearly hadn't been altered.
To their credit, the slightly complex changes to the dress they did alter were done perfectly and my dress looked great on the big day. I'm just not sure with all the hassle that I'd choose to go back again. read more
