The service is nice, warmly welcomes customers at the entrance, but the tailoring service is a disaster. The client's requests are not taken into account and the end result is different than what you thought it would be.

Any tailoring pretty much!! I came in here in a mad panic one afternoon after realising I had split a seam in my mums Karen Millen dress........sh*t. They could see I was in distress and were so lovely and comforting, and had the dress fixed within the day! I couldn't ask for any better. They also custom make curtains too, which is really useful for Edinburgh. The windows in some of Edinburgh's Newtown are ridiculously big, so they make all the curtains there for you! They have a really good dry cleaning service too. They are Master Tailors!

I didnt really know what I was looking for but the shop assistant was very helpful and accommodating. Despite being an older lady she was quite happy to run up and down ladders retrieving products for me to have a look at. The shop was very well laid out despite its small size and awkward dimensions. Needlework isnt something that I am personally interested but I easily found the perfect gift and a look around the shop certainly captured my imagination. If I was looking for similar goods in the future this would be the first place I would visit.

Stitches is well known throughout Edinburgh for its high quality of alterations and careful…read moreclothing treatment, and several members of my family have sworn by it for years. I recall coming in here in a massive fluster, wanting a dress altered for a big formal event that I had coming up. In my usual disorganised fashion, I'd left it completely to the last minute, but rather than eyeing me with a look of hostile, we've not got time for this qualities, one of the experienced members of the stitching empire whisked me through to the back to pin my dress in the right places, and in reassuring tones, told me not to worry. I should still be more organised though. Anyway, Stitches has never let me down in the alteration department, and I'm always confident they'll come up with the goods. Aside from alterations, they also do tailoring, dressmaking and drycleaning.

The staff were so friendly and understanding, totally brushing away my no-clue-about-sewing-repairs-ness. Definitely the first stop for clothing alterations and repairs in Edinburgh!

She and I corresponded for a bit and not only was her quote incredibly reasonable, I thought she seemed absolutely lovely. I sent her some ideas and she posted me a few different fabric ideas she had. Meeting and communicating with her was not only easy, but so much fun. She produced for me a dress which I have worn on every special occasion since, and which I have received compliments on every time. Just this past weekend I was visting friends at whose wedding I was able to wear my dress. The bride's mother was up visiting and when I met her again this weekend she said to me "you probably don't remember me, but I remember when we met you were wearing the most amazing tartan dress." Lynne's dress was so amazing that the bride's own mother (who is a dressmaker) remembered it, two years later. If that isn't an outstanding endorsement, I don't know what is.
