Sewing And Alterations near Cambridge

“Virginia, you are my fairy godmother!! A bit of backstory— I ordered my dress online without ever trying it on or seeing it in person. It was custom to my size and delivered just 2 weeks before the big day. When it arrived, it was way too big, and the sleeves were in the box, not stitched on the body as previously discussed with the seller. I was in a panic. I called 7 different companies who laughed or huffed saying “you don’t have much time” “there is no way we can complete that in this timeframe” “good luck finding someone that can accommodate” “sorry hun, that’s a big request”. I was defeated. I was emotional. I was devastated. I came across Virginia Buelvas Bridal, a local hespeler seamstress. Her shop was closed but I thought maybe I could call and leave a message. Virginia answered the phone on the second ring, listened to my needs and the time frame and with calmness in her voice, said “I will see you tomorrow morning at 10am, don’t worry we will get this done!” I cried tears of relief, and again she confidently told me she would be happy to help. Virginia, you made my dress come to life. You were very pleasant and kind, affordable and professional. While trying on my dress, I had a sneak peek of the dresses Virginia makes and I was blown away at the talent. I will forever recommend you! Thank you thank you thank you“

“I have taken a few items to Stitch N Sew and have been happy with the work. My couch cushion zippers have held up and my jeans were hemmed to look just like the original hem when I purchsed them. I continue to take my sewing needs to Stitch N Sew.“

“As a last ditch effort to "save" a designer black silk dress, I took it into K cleaners. I had stupidly washed the dress, which changed the feel and drape of the silk. There were also mysterious streaks on the dress. The dress was delivered in beautiful condition - streaks gone, and the silk feeling much softer and more like the original. The employee had not guaranteed the work, and was especially concerned about the streaks, which she thought could be a permanent change in colour. I may have been lucky, but I highly recommend this company.“

“The manager listened to my concerns and took the time to understand what I was looking for.“

“Had a great experience. Quick turnover, very well done work and very friendly service. I'll be going here from now on.“
