Regular Clothing, Pricing, FAQs

Regular Clothing & Projects

👇Schedule appointment below!👇

Regular clothes bring both joys and challenges to the sewing world. Pricing these tasks can be tricky, as the effort and expertise required often go unappreciated compared to formalwear. Many talented sewists choose to specialize in formal garments for this very reason. However, we believe in the value of all sewing endeavors, whether it's the glitz of formalwear or the comfort of everyday attire.

Now, let's talk about our biggest challenge: time. There never seems to be enough of it, and our team of sewists is constantly busy. To manage the demand, we've implemented a reservation system for all garments with specific deadlines.

🚫Stay on this page and schedule below if you don't have a deadline!! If you DO have a deadline, then you need to head over to our formalwear section where we can ensure those deadlines are met. Just a heads up, our guaranteed slots are typically booked out 6-8 months in advance. It's a popular spot!

Despite our formalwear commitments, we do find time for regular clothing projects. We squeeze in quick hemming jobs and fixes between the magnificent wedding gowns. If you can patiently wait for us to work through our regular clothes queue, the typical turnaround time is 6-8 weeks. However, please note that it can vary between 3-4 weeks and 8-12 weeks, depending on the workload.

We're working hard to keep up with the demands of our sewing adventures. Whether you're rocking fancy formalwear or seeking our snazzy regular clothes service, rest assured that we'll make sure your garments are in top shape. Let's conquer this fashion chaos together!

Typical Projects For Us:

Ah, the wonderful world of projects that grace our sewing realm on a regular basis! Brace yourself for a taste of the sewing extravaganza we encounter day in and day out. Feast your eyes on these common gems we often lay our talented hands upon:

  • Patches on Uniforms
  • Patches on Motorcycle Leathers
  • Pant Hems
  • Jacket Zipper Replacements
  • Jeans Repair
  • T-shirt Hems
  • Adding Darts so clothing is shaped more like the people wearing them. 

Now, let's talk about a few projects that we politely decline to take on. Consider these our "No-Go" zones where we won't dare tread. So, here's the deal: we don't do drapes, fur is a definite "no," shoe repairs are not our expertise, crafting garments from scratch is not our jam, and when it comes to leather, we have some limitations. It's important to be transparent about what we specialize in, so you can find the perfect match for your specific needs. But fear not, we're more than happy to assist you with a wide range of other sewing wonders!

Schedule an Appointment

(available starting January 2024)

When it comes to our sewing projects, formalwear reservations always come first. 🛑If you have clothes that need to be ready by a specific date, please check our formal reservation calendar for availability on your due date instead of using this appointment calendar.🛑

We want to be transparent with you: we cannot provide a guarantee on the completion dates for regular clothing items. These items are placed in a queue based on the order they were received, and the queue can have very unpredictable turnaround times, as little as under 2 weeks to more than 12 weeks. We work on regular clothing projects in between our commitments to formalwear reservations, so please keep this in mind when considering our services.

Having said that, you may call us to find out how busy we are and what our best guess is at the wait time. (507-545-2071)
