    If there was an option to give 100 stars she would easily deserve that! Stella is not only professional and an expert at what she does but she is honest and works quick! My wedding is later this month and my mother found the perfect red dress but although we bought it in her size it appears it was 2 sizes too small with a zipper that gave us great difficulty. We came all the way from Orlando because we heard she is the best. She lived up to her reputation because not only did she make my mother's dress a perfect fit, she did it within 2 weeks and it looked as the dress was made that way. While I was there with my mother another person came in for her dress fitting and she screamed because Stella's work was so amazing! During the most stressful time of wedding planning "crunch time" she calmed me and assured that she can help me. Fast forward a few weeks...My future sister in law is top heavy and she went to 2 other tailors in Tampa to get some support with her dress. Both places told her they can't help her as it's the way the dress was made and even made comments on her body type. I called Stella and she gave us an appointment the vey next day and assured us she will do her best. Those tailors made my future sister in law cry and with one phone call to Stella she felt better. Please try her out because if you don't your doing yourself a disservice. She's experienced, humble, and even the bridal boutique I bought my dress from senda all of their brides there. Thank you Stella for your amazing work and for putting out my wedding fires!

    She did a good job on altering my wedding dress and repairing some zippers on a bike kit. Very reasonable.

    Stella did a great job altering my dress and is such a sweet lady! I will definitely return in the future and tell all my friends about her.

    Alterations by Amy!!!…read more I've been a client of Pat and her team for nearly twenty years! When my little niece would visit from Virginia, she would insist we go see Pat! She had her very first formal gown altered by Pat at just five years old--and Pat continued to tailor her dresses all the way through her final prom. Fast forward to 2025, my sweet niece was getting married, and this time it was Auntie who needed a gown altered! I knew the day had come for Pat to retire...and I was beyond thrilled when I learned Amy had taken over the business. This review is for Alterations by Amy! Amy is the best - she learned from the best & I am so happy to spend the next 25+ years as her client...when my niece has children...we will bring them to Amy! Amy! Amy! Amy!!! What can't you do!?!?! She totally transformed my very formal evening gown into the most stunning one-shoulder gown, perfect for my niece's outdoor summer wedding. She removed the long train, converted the buttoned halter neckline into an elegant one-shoulder design, and even added cups for shape and support - no separate bra needed! (Ladies!!! IYKYK!) The fit and finish were flawless, and the transformation was beyond my expectations. What amazed me most was that Amy made all these alterations the day before I was scheduled to leave for the wedding. She worked quickly and professionally, completing everything while I waited--and she even hemmed my husband's linen pants at the very last minute! The pricing was so reasonable, especially considering the level of craftsmanship, speed, and care she put into every detail. If you ever need alterations...big or small...Amy is the one to trust. She's a true lifesaver, a perfectionist, and an absolute joy to work with. Highly, highly recommend!

    One word: GO! I went to Pat's with the goal of either altering my OG wedding dress because I just…read moredidn't love it or getting something else. I spoke with Pat about my ideas for alterations and she was very helpful with her recommendations. I then spent some time looking at their consigned items. I was really impressed with the variety in styles and sizes they had for wedding dresses. With the help of Amy and Brittany, I ended finding quite literally my dream dress. Though I did not end up getting any alterations here, I am certain that Pat would have done a fabulous job!! 10/10 would recommend going here. It was about an hour and a half drive for me but SO worth it and I could not be happier with the dress I picked out. I'll post photos of the dress once we get pictures taken. Thank you so much for your help ladies!! Xoxo

    I want to boast on these ladies!!! I came in at the last moment to get my maid of honor dress…read morealtered for my sisters wedding, and was so worried I'd waited too long. From the moment I walked in, they were wonderful! So nice and helpful!! They sized me and told me it would be a very quick turn around; they were actually quicker than my schedule! When I was able to come pick up the dress, IT FIT LIKE A GLOVE!! This thing went from 4 sizes too big, to perfect! They also added cups in so i didn't have to bother with a bra. I couldn't have had a custom made dress that fit any better! They were so wonderful that even my TEENAGER talked about how nice they were for days afterwards! The price was reasonable for such an alteration, and I would recommend them to anyone who needs alterations in the future!!

The curtains were $9 a panel on sale! She said they were difficult! My mom said you should have called and said you couldn't do them since she said it took her days! She was rude to my mother about it accused her of wanting something done for nothing! Said God was listening and well honey God just saw you charge someone $160 to hem curtain's! I have been here several times and referred her to many people! I will not anymore and I will let everyone know what she did!

    This cleaners advertises alterations. My complaint-they do not follow instructions, do not know how…read moreto sew. I gave them a ladies jacket to shorten the sleeves. $28. I am a seamstress, very knowledgeable. However I do not enjoy altering linings. All she had to do was this specific alteration. Instead she did as she pleased or perhaps it was ignorance. This person added a crooked stitch around each cuff destroying the lines of the sleeve. The material and design of this jacket is to look like suede. Adding this stitch destroyed the illusion and makes it looks cheep and tacky. There is no repair- removing the stitch would leaves holes and show making it look even worse. My complaint/request to be reimbursed for the jacket was ignored by the owner. It was bought on sale for $80. Instead they lied, said they had returned it to it's original condition, taken the sleeves off and added back the sleeve length. Not physically possible as the extra material had been cut off. The owner only called back after I complained again. He added anther lie, said the sleeve was repaired and looked "perfect". False. They had only removed the crooked stitching and pressed the cuff flat which further drew attention to the destruction. Ignorance. Non professional. I again requested reimbursement. Refused. The owner demanded the sales receipt, focused on the date and age of the jacket. This has NO bearing on their mistake and not following the instructions of the customer. Obviously I had never worn it. It is now ugly and cheep. It was bought 7mns ago. I don't have the receipt. My calls were not returned. This is poor, poor unprofessional behavior. Not acceptable.

    Terrible place. I had a jacket "cleaned" but all they did was press it, it had lint and hair all…read moreover it, plus it still smelled, guess they didn't think I would notice it. Then I looked at my previous items and they too were not cleaned, just pressed!
