I was informed that there was walk-ins from 10-4 on Thursdays. I show up at noon with my infant to get fitted. They told me it's lunch and I can come back later. Would have been nice to know that you're available from 10-12; 1-4. The owner offered for the following Friday but walk ins were best for my busy schedule with a child. The front staff needs to work on communications read more

Kathy is a Godsend! She was able to 'correct' the design of a dress I very much wanted to wear to my son's wedding, but I'd gained a few pounds, and it was too snug in the chest. There was no extra fabric with which to work. She applied an ingenious fix, and added fasteners on the sleeves that greatly improved the look. Also, she recommended a light slimming undergarment which I purchased, and it worked like a charm. Kathy's prices are extremely reasonable for her high level of skill, expertise and guidance. She took all the stress out of a very important issue for me, for which I am truly grateful. Highly recommended. read more

Kathy's Alterations - The dress Kathy made fit me. With my son before his wedding. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Ahwatukee, Arizona

I am forever grateful that I worked with Kathy for my wedding dress alteration. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. Not only is she SO talented, but she is one of the most kind, patient, and personable people I have met. The way she altered my wedding dress to fit me made my jaw drop- I've struggled with confidence in the past, but even I thought I looked beautiful during my final fitting. My dress was the first thing my husband commented on when we did our first look. I was first introduced to Kathy when I was getting my engagement shoot done. The dress I was going to wear accidentally got delivered to the wrong address, and I didn't receive it until 5 days before the shoot. Of course, there was something wrong with the fabric on the sleeves, so I panicked, but luckily Kathy came to the rescue. She fixed the sleeves within two days! Fast forward to about a few weeks before my wedding, my mom (who flew in from Japan), had an emergency with her dress and Kathy came to the rescue again. I cannot thank her enough. She is reasonably priced and offers options for payment. I am so blessed to have worked with Kathy. You will strike gold working with her! read more

Kathy has amazing customer service skills and her work is impeccable. I use her for all of our alterations and would recommend her to anybody who needs anything altered. read more

Kathy was extremely helpful with my husband's leather jacket. She went out of her way, and I really appreciated it. :)

Kathy has saved me time and time again. I have brought 3 different bridesmaids dresses to her and she has helped me feel confident in them all. She is honest and knows what's she's doing and is able to fix even the trickiest of issues. Thank you Kathy! read more

I've used Kathy's alterations on a few occasions, so has my wife. Her work is very good and the turnaround time is reasonable as well. The prices are a little on the high side however, you get what you pay for. For example, a simple hem on mens suit pants, $18.50, suit sleeves shortening $50; price at your big box retailer $13 and $30, respectively. Kathy herself is a very nice person. She has great customer service skills and treats you like family, not just a customer. She also does her best to accommodate you. Case in point, typically she requires appointments for fittings, my very first time visiting I didn't know this so I just showed up. Instead of sending me home and telling me to come back when I had an appointment, she fit me in between two appointments she had and got it back to me sooner than usual since I needed a short turnaround time. I will continue to use Kathy's for my alteration needs read more

I was honored and blessed when Kathy vegan working on my 2 dresses for our wedding they have turned out perfectly and she skilled at creating something out of what you may have an idea about. however it was the moment I was in a pickle due to my dress needing some extra attention for protecting the bottom from the redrocks Kathy went above and beyond to show up at the shop last minute to help me in a time before my wedding pictures taking place in Sedona. She was gracious and understanding and made it happen Not only is she talented and skilled but she passionate Thank you for helping me create an protection barrier on my dress for my photos before the wedding Xoxo Claudine and Robert read more

Kathy is so nice. She really helped alter my bridesmaid dress and outfit for my friend's Indian wedding. I will say while work was done nicely and timely. It was quite expensive but you pay for quality. read more

Nice lady. Good work would recommend. Not cheap but good work has a price. Why do i need to have 85 characters?

I can't stop talking about what an incredible seamstress Kathy is. She altered my first daughter's wedding dress, and it fit perfect. My second daughter's wedding dress was much more difficult to alter. In fact, David's Bridal refused to make the alterations after we purchased the dress there. Kathy altered this beaded bridal gown perfectly. And no complaints!!! Kathy preforms magic. Yes, it costs more to go the Kathy, but it's worth every penny. I would totally recommend Kathy for your alterations. read more

This was the best and friendliest service I have ever found. Kathy did alterations on some shirts for me and I love the results. Very professional work. I highly recommend her for any of your alterations!!! Thank you Kathy!!! read more

Went to get my jean shorts altered. When I picked picked them up they looked perfect. Definitely would go back again!

I had a company event in Washinton DC that called for evening wear attire. I hadn't worn a suit in many years and had Kathy do some work on the pants. Unfortunately, the jacket was unusable so I had to race out and buy a suit. I was able to find one the next day and brought it to Kathy. She fixed the pants and took up the sleeves on the coat in a timely manner and I was able to pick up my suit in time. I highly recommend Kathy she is personable, professional, and great to work with!

I needed to get my bridesmaid's dress altered and Kathy did an amazing job. she is so nice and the dress fit me perfectly! I was nervous about wearing a strapless but I never even had to worry once about adjusting or pulling the top up. read more

This was the first time I had to get alterations on a dress and all I can say is I won't need to go anywhere else now! Kathy did such an amazing job making me feel comfortable and feel my best in a dress that was revealing due to the low cut. I have a larger bust and Kathy made sure it fit my body perfect. She is the best! read more

Kathy's Alterations - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Ahwatukee, Arizona

This was the first time I've used an alteration place in our new neighborhood. They were kind, quick and not overpriced! Love it

I am so glad I found Kathy for all of our alterations needs! She is so friendly, quick and great at what she does. While I was waiting for my fitting I witnessed other customers interacting with her and you can tell she is thought highly of. This made me even happier to work with her. Turnaround time was quick and my dress looks perfect! I would absolutely recommend d Kathy's Alterations. read more

I could cry! Anybody that uses this business is guaranteed to get ripped off! She charged me $37.50 to take an inch or two off of a $29 cotton skirt! Two skirts=$75! When I dropped them off the girl said she didn't have a price because Kathy wasn't there! Shame on you Kathy's Alterations! Think about it and be kind and fair! It's the right thing to do! read more

Fantastic business and great turn around. My husband needed his military trousers adjusted to fit as well as stripes sewn on correctly and Kathy did an amazing job. Pricing is really affordable! We fully recommend Kathy for any alterations! read more

The ONLY place I'll go to get my clothes altered! Kathy does beautiful work and she's super friendly and takes her time to make sure it's done right--she actually called me about my overalls to be clear about exactly what I wanted done. I also had a pair of jeans a while ago that had a terrible rip, and she did such a great job you can't even tell where the rip was. Prices are very fair--this is the only alterations place you need! read more

Would not recommend. After calling other nearby alteration businesses I discovered that taking in a bridesmaid dress a few sizes does not cost $175! If you want to be gauged for hem work take your items here. I will also not be bringing my daughter's homecoming or prom dresses here for that reason the next few years. Would not recommend her to other parents and friends in our community. It's not magical tailoring for the price. read more

Kathy was very professional and easy to work with from our first meeting to the last. I had a tight time frame for our elopement and she did an amazing job altering my wedding dress to exactly as we discussed. I love how much experience she brings to her profession - and cannot thank her enough for creating the dress of my dreams. read more

Kathy is THE BEST in all of Phoenix. She has altered so many every day items for me so I completely trusted her to alter my gown for my daughter's wedding, and naturally she did an amazing job. The gown fit like it was designed for me. On top of that success she fixed the alterations on my daughters wedding dress after she had taken it to some in Scottsdale. She looked stunning on her day thanks to Kathy. But, it's not just her skill but her exuberant and cheerful personality that make the whole experience just wonderful. Thank you always for your work and your wonderful personality read more

Brought my new uniform pieces into Kathy and she had it all tailored and ready in a few days. Great work and my uniform looks great! Thanks Kathy! read more

Kathy's great.... will use her service again and again. Quality alterations and friendly

Kathy's did my daughter's rather challenging prom dress this year! What made it challenging was the fact that we purchased it as a 'close out' , from a high end store and because my size 3 / petite daughter had to have it... it was also a size 10. Loaded with beading; crystals and a long tulle train that we wanted removed ... OH! and the fact that my daughter was attending a private school back east, made this one time fitting especially challenging for Kathy. Guess what?! It came out flawless! We added straps for a halter or on-shoulder in case my daughter didn't feel she could deal with the strapless dress all night too. It fit perfectly! The train was removed and she had room to maneuver in and out of her limo and up and down stairs for pictures all evening. She was able to dance the night away in a perfect gown and was even crowned Prom Queen with her date as King by nights end! I can't recommend Kathy's Alterations enough. She is to the point with fittings in the spring due to weddings and Prom. Make note of that l, as I tend to chatter too much! Kathy also prefers cash as payment! Top notch service to the end! read more

I brought my wedding gown to Kathy with lots of alterations to be done and with not a lot of time to do them. I gave her just under four weeks to practically transform my dress. And she did just that!!! Kathy did an absolutely AMAZING job with my gown. I could not be more pleased!! She did the alterations wicked fast, so so well, and at a great price. I would go to Kathy a million times over!! Thank you!! read more

Kathy is amazing. She tailored pants for my son and me as well as a dress for my daughter. All items fit amazingly!!!! The icing on the cake was the customer service Kathy provided. She was super friendly and accommodating. I will always recommend and use her services. Thank you Kathy. read more

I had 2 dresses altered by Kathy and i highly recommend her. She was very nice and professional during the fitting and did an amazing job. read more

The absolute best in the business!!!!!! I just had two wedding dresses altered here (I changed my mind) and Kathy and Janet were the most professional and personable people I could have ever asked to help me during this process. Kathy is extremely talented and incredibly detailed with her work and treats your items as if they are her own. She has an eye for design and knows exactly what to do if you're unsure. At the end of this process I don't even feel as if she's just a professional who alters my clothes, I feel as if she's a true friend. I have looked forward to every appointment and now I'm going to just find random things in my closet for her to alter so I can come chat with her again. You will not be disappointed with her!!! :) read more

Kathy was incredibly friendly and did a perfect job altering a dress I wore to a friend's wedding. She had a quick turnaround, too. Be sure you call to make an appointment first as she doesn't do consults on all days (because she's sewing). Thanks Kathy for doing a great job! read more

Kathy was able to make my ordered online bridesmaids dress fit perfectly!! She was quick and the finished product looks great. The price was very reasonable. I will definitely be back if I have other alternation needs. read more

Kathy is absolutely amazing! I worked with her for my wedding dress alterations. We set up 3 appointments and each fitting just got better & better. Kathy is friendly & warm & makes you feel like the most important bride. She is very good with details, even small details I would not have noticed she took notice to that made my dress fit even better. I have referred my mom & entire bridal party to her! Kathy is also very affordable, which was such a big concern of mine as I heard alterations can be quite pricey. My total cost was less than the starting price for some other places in the area. I will be back to Kathy with other garments in the future! read more

Very impressed , I have a lot of my clothes altered and finding high quality work has been difficult . Kathys work was excellent actually better than expected her details were perfect, had both a suit and jacket altered work was excellent and ready to wear. Will definitely use again. read more

Helped with a last-minute same-day emergency dress repair. Provided service as requested and very reasonable price. Thank you!

I was so nervous about turning my wedding dress over to have it altered but I have had the BEST experience with Kathy! I was immediately at ease after our first fitting. She has an amazing attitude and energy and knows exactly what she is doing! So lucky I found this awesome business. read more

Kathy was professional and sweet. I was completely blown away by the speediness of her work too. Very grateful for her help with my bridesmaids dress! read more

Stacy London and Clinton Kelly say that we shouldn't expect to find clothes off the rack that fit us perfectly. At least this is what I remind myself time and time again while I am shopping and getting frustrated because things are too long or too snug in certain areas. In search for a great pair of black pants for work, I tried on many, many pairs of pants. Finally found one that fit great except for extra two inches of material under my feet. I was tired, I was over-shopped (yes, it does happen), and I decided to look on the bight-side. I had found my pants and all they needed was a little alteration. The next weekend I took them to Kathy's Alterations which is located in Legend Dry Cleaners. I should have know better than to go that weekend, it was the weekend before PROM and Kathy was a little swamped by teenage girls. Also, I learned from the girl behind the counter that fittings are "By appointment only" and I hadn't made an appointment. Bummer. So I made an appointment to come by later in the week and the girl reminded me to bring shoes with the same heel that I would normally wear with these pants so we could get the length right. Good reminder! When I did come back, Kathy let me into a little room to change into my too-long pants. The room is covered in pictures from clients past and served as visuals of all the great work she has done. When she returned, she was very friendly and chatty and made me feel totally comfortable while she pinned up my pants to where she thought they would look best for me. She answered all of my questions and let me know when I could pick them up. I just got them back the other day and I love them. The length is perfect and I can't wait to wear them to work. Stacy and Clinton are right! A few extra dollars can make it much more enjoyable to wear clothes that fit great!! Thanks Kathy! read more
