    I didn't think it's in business anymore. Pulled up and it was closed. Called the number and no…read moreanswer. You don't have to be rude ma'am. I'm basically leaving my experience with your business. I searched it up and both Google and Yelp gave me your business hours and I showed up during "open " hours . I understand about being a mother. No where in my review did I mentioned I called yesterday. I actually did leave a message on the number that was listed at the shop. My review was simply I showed up during listed opened hours and your shop was closed , called the number no answer and the shop looked dark I thought it maybe it was closed down. So don't need to be rude that's just MY experience .

    I never thought I would leave her a bad review. She did a lot of work for me that I loved,…read morereworking vintage dresses. I have given her name to people for weddings, daily wear, everything. And over the last 6 months, she has broken down our relationship with poor workmanship and refusing to meet deadlines. I dropped off two vintage dresses in October for rework. One was silk beaded and one was designer 80's prom. The silk beaded she added side panels, and I got it back in January, the date of the event i needed it for, not a day early. She didn't bind the silk edge properly and it pulled out that same night after three hours of wear. She lined silk with silk, making the dress stiff and the bottom seam was left very sharp and ripped my nylons up at the event. I got so many comments on the torn nylons. She promised to repair it so I asked her to use the proper lining. I also asked her to match the beading on the panels and went and found the beads. I was willing to pay for mote work on the bad job even. We had a previous great relationship so I assumed it was one bad job and felt comfortable going further and I truly believed she would fix it. I asked her to do the 80's prom first so that I could wear it spring since I already wore the silk. She has taken it apart for months and has never put it back together. I told her repeatedly not to take fabric from the peplum because it was the entire reason I bought the dress. I told her take from the skirt because we were shortening anyway. She took from the peplum. We added girth to the bodice so the peplum is no longer as ruffled. Devastating. I had two separate fittings for the 80's dress scheduled. One she left me standing outside and didn't even tell me that she wasn't coming. A later different fitting, I had a feeling she was gonna ghost me so I called her first and found out that she was never intending to show up. I have begged for dates for a fitting and she refuses to respond. I was only able to get responses when I said never mind I will just come pick it up. She then said she wouldn't even charge me for the work on the 80's dress!!! The work to take it apart and never put it back together? She missed valentines day, my entire show season, every event i could have purposed it for... So now she has a silk beaded vintage dress that she never repaired her bad seams, so that dress is essentially destroyed and unwearable. And I paid for the job already, but now have to pay someone else to fix it or throw it out. And the other dress is in pieces. If she had never touched them, I could at least resell them. She will probably respond with some quippy nasty remarks like she does everyone else who complains. But I am not an unreasonable person with unreasonable expectations. I treated her like a friend and she has destroyed two beautiful vintage garments. I am utterly devastated to lose the working relationship and to lose the dresses. Please be firm on your deadlines with her. She will always pass the buck. I doubt I will get a genuine apology. All I will get back is the remains of two vintage dresses. One that has already been paid for. I will also get some little sneer in response I'm sure. update: the snide remark is posted by the owner. i will be picking up my unfinished garments this evening. how truly sad to see such a dishonest and disgusting response. this is what you can expect. it truly tells to her character.

Sew Beautiful Alternations is a nice Korean lady who I have been going for about 2-3 years now. She has always done a great job at hemming my pants and is willing to walk through it with me on why she prefers it a certain way while still taking my thoughts into consideration. I prefer someone who is willing to value my thoughts and also willing to not just do what the customer wants when it may not turn out well. English isn't her first language but she's always done great at explaining the process with me. Turnaround time is usually pretty quick, but I recommend not rushing her and let her do her thing since she's the professional. Definitely come with resources that you may need for her to get the exact measurements on how you will wear your items such as bringing the correct shoes, belt to hold up the pants, etc. Again, please do not confused this location with Sewing Specialties. They're both great locations, but I definitely feel more connected with Sew Beautiful Alternations. If you are looking for a place to get some clothes alternates, I highly recommend coming to this nice Korean Aunty at Sew Beautiful Alternations.

    Svetlana is one of the most beautiful souls I have ever had the privilege of meeting. From the very…read morefirst phone call to inquire about alterations for my wedding dress, I could already sense that she was so warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. Meeting her in person only confirmed it. She listened carefully to every single one of my needs and accommodated each one with such grace and care. My wedding dress is chiffon, and she created the most gorgeous custom bustle in the back that made it look beautifully layered and flowing. Beyond her extraordinary skill, she made me feel beautiful. She complimented me, lifted my spirits, and even took the time to teach me how to walk without tripping on my train. That kind of thoughtfulness goes so far beyond what any seamstress is required to do. After I picked up my perfectly hemmed, bustled, and altered dress, I had a small panic moment (actually, a major panic moment) when I realized the style looked slightly different than I remembered from when I originally ordered it from Anthropologie. I called Svetlana in a near meltdown, and without hesitation, she invited me to come in that very same day. Within 20 minutes, she had fixed everything flawlessly!! I was in disbelief!! Svetlana is a true miracle worker, and anyone who gets to work with her is incredibly, incredibly lucky. I will be forever grateful that she was a part of my wedding journey!!! I love you, Svetlana!!!!

Her advice saved me money and helped ensure my dress looks best for the big day, and I'm so grateful! I recommend coming to her if you need guidance on alterations needs! I will bring other clothes back to her bc she has my total trust now!
