Highly recommend Teresa for your alteration needs! I found her specifically for adjustments to my wedding dress but she also helped hem some jeans and add boning to a bustier. She's very friendly and speedy and her prices are super reasonable! read more

I would highly recommend T Burns Design to anyone. She was not only highly responsive but given my sister and I tight timeline she accommodated our schedule to meet same day. I am eager to see how my Sisters wedding dress turns out, and will be happy to update this review with final results! read more

Teresa was amazing. She was able to get creative and accommodate for my wild ideas. Together we figured out a way that my dress can become shorter for the reception. She encouraged me to come back as many times as needed in order to make sure we got everything exactly how I wanted it. My dress came out perfect and looks high quality. And the final price was so much lower than expected! read more

I am so happy I found this place! Not only does she do excellent seamstress-ing (is that a word?) but she is also so friendly and down to earth. I've taken various items to her for anything from zippers, to size changes, to damage repairs, to complete overhauls of the style. And super reasonable prices! Highly recommend. read more

Super speedy, excellent work! First I needed my items returned quickly.For a trip I was gonna take. She was super quick and they look great!

Teresa is just wonderful. I came to her after David's Bridal continued to make mistakes with alterations. She swooped me up in her hands and fixed everything on point! She saw all the flaws (where they overtook and undertook) that made a huge difference to make my dress just perfect. I would trust her with any important occasion! read more

I left pretty much every pair of pants I own in Teresa's capable hands. In one week, she had them all fit me perfectly. All were too big in the waist. Good pricing. I would have her work on my clothes again! read more

Teresa was so eager to help. I will be returning for any alterations I need in the future.

Teresa was awesome. Speedy, assured, knowledgeable, talented, prices her services very fairly, and she's even fun to talk to. If i ever again need alterations of any sort, she's my woman. Highly recommend. read more

AMAZING!!!!! Quick and sweet, worked with my schedule!!! Only needed my pants altered from the bottom since I'm too short and she was able to get them back to me same day to help me out! Amazing work! Very professional read more

Teresa of T Burns Designs...did a fabulous job fixing the hems of 3 pairs of pants that I left her. They look brand new! I highly recommend her!! read more

Teresa did the alterations for my wedding dress. I needed the fitted bodice taken in because it was too loose around my rib cage. Instead of taking it in at the seam and taking it in on both sides so the dress would still lay the right way, she literally folded the fabric and did a crooked seam down one side of the fitted bodice. The bodice had panels that were all the same width and it was extremely obvious what she had done. There were visible knicks in the fabric and stains on the dress as well. She also altered the shoulder strap on my dress by the folding the two sides under and sewing it back together unevenly so the pleating on the shoulder strap didn't line up. I had to pay Teresa, take the dress to a different seamstress, and spend double the amount of money to try and salvage the dress. My dress was $1500 so I couldn't afford to get a new dress. Thankfully the second seamstress made it wearable again and the visible damage to the dress didn't show in pictures. But it cost me way more money and stress than expected. read more

Theresa was very easy to work with, super quick with the alterations I needed and very fair with the price!

If you need a dress altered for a wedding or special event, Teresa is the person you MUST see. I brought her a previously used wedding dress, and when she was done, she made the dress look like it was designed specifically for me. Before finding Teresa, we tried receiving quotes from other seamstresses, but you could tell they were highballing their prices because the dress was for a wedding. Teresa gave us a fair rate and provided the alterations promptly from her *clean* workspace (which is something not to be taken for granted). I felt confident in her expertise and knowledge of how to make the dress fit me just right. Highly recommend!!! read more

Very responsive. It took a while for the repair to be completed. It was a small tear. The price was appropriate. The workmanship of the repair was good. It has been several weeks and it looks great. read more

Teresa is fantastic in every way. Super accommodating and does beautiful work. She has altered two wedding gowns for me, made a belt for one of those gowns using extra fabric from the hem, and most recently hemmed and took in a bridesmaid dress (it was 3 sizes too big and it fits like a glove now). She's super personable and also helpful with choosing undergarments and teaching you how to bustle a gown. Finally, she is great about COVID precautions and really cares about her clients. I plan to use her in the future for any other garment needs, and I highly recommended to anyone who needs alterations. read more

Teresa is great! She did a great job altering my bridesmaid dress! She hemmed it and added some of the fabric to the bust area to make it more modest. She is very reliable! Reasonably priced. She got my dress done in a reasonable time. Highly recommend. read more

Amazing job. Last minute alterations done quickly. Such a sweet person! Highly recommend!

So helpful, prompt, and professional. Gave us free Covid-19 masks which are beautiful and homemade.

Teresa was wonderful! Got my bridesmaids dress done last minute and couldn't have asked for a better job! Dress fits wonderfully now. Amazing price as well. Thank you :) read more

Just incredible. She was amazing. Everything was done immaculately. Absolutely recommend. My daughter was very apprehensive about alterations & she did it perfectly. Nothing but praise. read more

I came to her very last minute with my bridesmaid's dress that needed to be brought in almost a full size and hemmed, with less than two weeks to go. She got it done on time and was super affordable! Really nice person, too. read more

My wife purchased an off-the-rack light jacket that had everything she was looking for, except its boxy shape. Teresa fixed it, charged us a very reasonable price, and the result looks amazing -- a fitted jacket -- and my wife is really pleased. 5 Stars. We will now go nowhere else. Pros: Highly talented, expert seamstress/tailor, with decades of experience, and very affordable prices. Happily takes credit cards. Cons: by appointment only -- call before you head over. read more

Teresa is such a wonderful lady and really talented! I found her through yelp when I was i Arizona and needed my dress completely redone and had a good feeling about her , and I don't regret it ! She did a wonderful job and would see her again for sure ! read more

Teresa is a magician when it comes to making something fit and fit like it was made for you. I've had a few dresses altered by her and each time, I'm so happy I did. Recently, I took her my wedding dress. I had issues with it feeling too snug and I needed the top modified. I brought it to her in what I felt was a short timeline but she had no issues getting it done. She made me feel at home and welcomed. Teresa never has a bad word to say about the fit on your body and makes you feel beautiful. She works hard to get it right and her skill really shows in her work. She is also very reasonably priced and centrally located. I highly recommend her! read more

So glad I found T Burns Design. I quoted many places all around Tucson, and she by far had the most reasonable prices and appeared to be the most personable. Teresa hemmed a bridesmaid dress for me and did a wonderful job in such a timely manner for a great price. It's so apparent she cares about her work and her customers-- we certainly didn't feel like just another order with her. read more

Great place for quick repair! I needed more holes in a belt I purchased, and after calling dozens of places in Tucson, I found this place. She was so sweet and helpful and a convenient location by U of A campus. She added the holes in my belt super quickly and was just overall awesome. Definitely recommending this place to friends! read more

Teresa is the best! She's so sweet to work with and knows what she's doing. I had a maternity dress I needed altered in the front and sides for a wedding and she did it not just in a timely fashion but also without hesitation. Her ability to consult and know what needs to be fixed made the process so much easier for me. I'll definitely be using her again for alterations for my family and myself. read more

Teresa is an excellent seamstress and she's very reasonably priced considering her level of experience and skill. She has done many different jobs for me from making Halloween costumes, hemming pants and making new covers for my patio chairs cushions. Your clothes will be in good hands with Teresa. read more
