Sewing And Alterations in Berkeley

“Karen is such a wonderful and kind artist. I have brought artisan pillows and scarves to her, made of fine upcylced material and she has always been so generous to work with me to repair the loved items. She knows the best way to make them more durable and treats them with respect (not laughing at a grown person with a cashmere lemur scarf or velvet fox pillow) which is much appreciated.“

“The best tailor in the Bay Area. Honest and fair pricing has kept me coming here for over a decade “

“My daughter needed the neckline of her wedding dress altered just 9 days before her wedding -- we were so lucky to find Sylvia at One Hour Martinizing in Berkeley. She is an amazing seamstress! Even though it's prom season and she was very busy, she fit us in and did a beautiful rush job. She even got the dress finished a day early, and she gave us a very reasonable price. Her work is impeccable, and she is super nice and friendly too.“

“Oh my God they were Lifesavers!! I had this very expensive dress arrive less than a week before a fancy holiday party When I tell you, I was so worried when it didn't fit. I called other places in area and nobody could do it on such short notice (understandable). The owners were so nice, got me in right away, it was much more affordable than the other places quoted me! I will always give them my business when it comes to alterations and dry cleaning and I really suggest you do too“
