The Sewing Room is definitely not your typical alteration shop!…read moreThe dress looked nice before, but The Sewing Room worked their magic and made it look like it was made just for my daughter. They took in the sides to highlight her waist, shortened the length, and reduced some of the skirt's puffiness. Every time we go there, they make us feel like we're on a runway -- truly exceptional work!

So, I needed 2 pair of pants hemmed and I've been putting it off forever. I shoved them in the back…read moreof my closet, and it was finally time to get them taken care of. (primarily because I needed them, so that was a motivating factor.) I was recommended to try this place out from my local dry cleaners, and boy, was this a great recommendation! For starters, they have really awesome hours. Their open Monday through Friday 10 am until 7 PM, and Saturdays from 10-6. They also don't require an appointment, which I loved! I was able to swing in here on my way home from work which was easy and convenient. It's located inside the Vince and Joe's shopping center next to Hamlin Pub, so it's relatively easy to find. Walking in, the lobby area is wonderfully decorated and clean. One of the nicest lobbies I think I've ever seen for a tailor/seamstress shop. There were two girls working here and both seemed to know what they were doing One of them had my try my pants on and she made the necessary adjustments to make my pants fit correctly. Surprisingly, they only needed a few days to get my pants done. I dropped them off on a Friday night and I got a text Monday morning saying they were ready? that's a quick turn around. Their prices are competitive, and it's $14 a pair for hemming. Since I had two pair, that's $28. Not to shabby. The other places were charging $15, and some even quoted me up to $20 a pair of pants? UM NO. Overall I was really impressed with the service and overall experience here. While its not close to home, it's easy to find, has great hours and they do good work for alterations. Also, the gal waiting on me said that they were under new ownership. I don't know how long ago that happened, but that's good to know. The reason I found out was because when I checked in here on Yelp, there was a 20% off coupon for first time check ins. She was confused about it and told me the check in was probably from the previous owners. I really loved my time here and their a good place. Will be returning in the future.

Very personable, friendly and professional, with reasonable rates. He seems to know how to fix any machine you can bring to him. We brought him an old Bernina sewing machine made in Switzerland back in the 60's and my Mom was thrilled he was able to fix the broken belt of that old machine. I highly recommend Utica Sewing Center to anyone who needs their sewing machine fixed.

Greetings, I…read morecontacted Victor at the Utica Sewing Center because his shop front said they work on Pfaff machines. I have a ~40 year old Pfaff 1215 that I use to make big kites and the foot pedal had died. As well, the machine was struggling with some of the 3 and 4 layer heavy nylon sewing that I do which I have to use heavy duty upholstery thread for which really works the machine hard. Victor took a hold of that thing and in just a few minutes figured out how he could set me up with a working foot petal (a factory replacement would have been $80) and also do a complete reconditioning (which usually runs $100) - both for $150. Victor is very knowledgeable about the inner workings and construction of the sewing machines he services and I can vouch he carries on the tradition of his father's commitment to good service. Nice job VIctor, and thanks again. My machine runs great! Todd Vest bzzh8c@hotmail.com

My dad told me about this store so we decided to give it a shot. The store is crazy busy inside because they have amazing deals. Even though it was busy, this gentleman measured him and got him in a suit so fast. He tried on another blue one with a slightly different color and chose that one. The gentleman told him to pick out any ahirt and tie as well. We weren't sure what the price was so we asked. He said it was $139 for the whole suit, tie, and shirt. The only additional charge is any alterations. It only cost $15 for the alterations though. He said it will be ready on Wednesday for pickup any time. We are so excited. The process was super easy and fast. We will definitely be back to get more.

Kim did an excellent job on the bridesmaid dress I had. The bridal store ordered a size 12 for me…read more(I understand they run small-- but geesh I am only 135lbs).. and there was a lot of alterations to be made. First, the dress was extremely unique especially at the top! Kim altered the breast area, off the shoulder strap (which was ornate), both sides of the dress to contour and fit my curves, my midsection, and the length. Although I am donating the dress for another woman to enjoy it for a special occasion, I will say that after Kim altered it I felt more confident and even sexy; whereas I once felt like a huge heifer in a potato sack! I will be brining my suit jackets and skirts to Kim as well for future alterations. She is FAST, QUICK, and AFFORDABLE!!
