I needed the waist taken in on a pair of jeans I had. I have never used a seamstress so I looked on my trusty Yelp app and picked this place because of their 5 star rating. Yelpers you were right on the money, like usual ;-), with this one. I brought in the jeans and was immediately greeted. After measurements I was told my pants would be done the next day. I returned and was asked to try them on to make use they fit properly and they were perfect! I looked and looked and I could not find were they were taken in at. I highly recommend them and will use them again in the near future. Oh, did I mentioned they were very fairly priced also. Thanks Yelpers for another great recommendations! read more

I had two wedding dresses altered there. My wedding dresses looked like they were unaltered and they fit perfect. They did an amazing job. A little pricy but you really do get what you pay for. I would recommend them for higher end and fancy attire since they are on the pricier side. read more

Lee is amazing! I used her for all my wedding needs! She hemmed my wedding dress and did the bustle for less than I would have paid at David's Bridal, she fixed my husband's suit last minute with no extra charge a few days before the wedding (which was incredible, I was so stressed about it being so last minute... you know men! But she did a great job and was really nice about it!), she made kimonos for my bridesmaids FROM SCRATCH (no other place in Tucson would even consider it -they were a bit pricey, $375 each, but she did a great job), she made fabric butteries for boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen, AND she made table squares for all my tables at the reception! She was super friendly and all her work was impeccable. If you want stuff done at a fair price and done nicely, go to Sew Perfectly! read more

See all

I've tried many alterations places in Tucson and some have messed up my favorite pieces but I can always trust Sew Perfectly with my vintage dresses and jeans. They always do a great job read more

Very friendly and skilled. I am happy with the garments they tailored for me. I felt comfortable and content with pricing.

I can sew, so when I take something to a tailor, I am usually looking for downright wizardry. I had a vintage jacket, of some unknown material, that was a hot mess (it feels like suede, but is machine washable, so obviously is not suede). This jacket needed many of the seams reinforced and the interior lining repaired. I shopped around extensively, because I didn't want it to emerge from the tailor looking a different kind of hot mess (a good wizard is hard to find). Having the repairs completed was a surprise gift for my partner and this jacket was his fathers... so, big deal. I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Sew Perfectly -- the jacket looks brand new. It's impossible to tell where the work was done. The price I was quoted (which was the same price I paid) was very reasonable... much lower than prices I have paid for jacket alterations at other tailors. I was given a reasonable turn around time, and my items were ready on schedule (for fun, I also had a pair of pants hemmed -- they are impeccable). Five stars, earned. read more

Was in from out of town for a wedding and had a wardrobe malfunction on the way to Arizona. Looked up Sew Perfectly as it was across from my hotel. I walked my jacket over around noon and was told they could get it to me at 5pm the same day! Was in a bind for a dinner that evening and they totally bailed me out. Very professional and friendly. Definitely a consummate small business staffed with professionals that are great at their craft. A+! read more

I brought my 30 year old leather jacket to this business for some repairs. They exceeded all my expectations and did a really wonderful job. read more

Uber customer service. I have a tea length cocktail gown that had to be let out. A miracle was performed! They must have a magic wand they use. Truthfully, they are very skillful. They also got the gown back to me ahead of schedule! I shall be a customer for life! read more

Lee did excellent work hemming 2 pairs of new slacks. She honored my request to save the extra material in case I needed new belt loops in the future. Mine seem to wear out and become frayed- probably because I drive a lot. Her establishment is very tidy and organized as other reviewers have noted. My work was ready on the day and time she promised. I also had a patch sewn on to a backpack- I don't think she had ever seen a Grateful Dead patch before :) The patch was placed perfectly and I couldn't be any happier. I can only comment on the work I had done. I would imagine that she would deliver the same level of service for women's alterations as well. Her rates are very competitive especially when you consider how promptly your alterations are ready. Our family is relatively new to Tucson and I am delighted to have discovered Sew Perfectly. They will continue to receive our business. Cheers! read more

I've never written a Yelp review before but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to commend Lee and her team at Sew Perfectly! What started as a massive alteration for my interview suit 3 years ago turned into multiple visits for other alternation needs. I have never seen anyone pay as much attention to detail as they have and provide the best customer service and price. I highly recommend this business! read more

Wonderful job on hemming a difficult multi-layered dress. Price was totally reasonable and it was ready on time.

The tailor is so humble and down to the earth. I like her personality and hard working attitudes. I bought a vest that doesn't fit me at all. I wear either small size or extra small. However, the vest I bought was large and she made it as it wasn't large. It perfectly fits me. I will wear the vest for the international festival day definitely!!! read more

Absolutely outstanding place to get anything tailored. I came in with a suit that needed to be tailored in two days and got it done perfectly and no charge for the rush. The people that work there are extremely friendly and love what they do. This will be the only place I go to for tailoring from now on. read more

I only felt being insulted by the woman who pin my dress. All I did was suggesting a little loser in the front and tighter on my back, because before that I was standing bow-backed. She just quickly removed all pins and said I'm too difficult and she'll never make me satisfied. I felt so shocked because I thought we were happily communicating with each other and I thought she is very professional. What a bad temper! If she couldn't stand customers giving their opinion she should said that before we started pinning! I asked her what did her mean that I'm difficult, I'm happy with the way she did. I think maybe she didn't mean that since she doesn't speak English well. Then she started to say my dress requires too much work and she couldn't do it, by using a rigid attitude. It's so awkward! She also said I wanted too perfectly which I wasn't. We've only started to pin 5 minutes! And now I feel it's ironic when she said that because the later on I found the store name is sew perfectly. I brought 4 items to sew and she didn't ask if I'd like to do other items. She didn't say goodbye when I walked out of the door. It's the worst customer experience I've ever had! I give 2 stars because of her techniques which I think may be still pretty good. I just don't feel anyone could use her attitude to talk to a customer. read more

Great service and detailed work! I needed a dress let out quite a bit and on somewhat short notice... I was happy to find this place could accommodate me in time, and it looked and fit perfectly. Thank you so much for taking the stress out of being stuffed into a bridesmaid dress! read more

Brought in a large number of items for alterations. They were courteous professional and best of all did an EXCELLENT job at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend read more

I am so impressed by the quality of workmanship on the many items of clothing that Lee, the owner, has tailored for me. She is not only an expert seamstress, but she is also so pleasant to work with. The turn around time for her to complete my alterations is less than 3 days and her prices are more than fair. She has a beautiful spotless shop that is centrally located in town. I highly recommend her for making garments from scratch or altering your clothing. She is the best! Lesley K. read more

Lee was great and you can't beat the prices. I took my wedding dress in last Saturday, my fiancee waited in the car and I was in and out in 15 minutes and I just picked my dress up one week later. No need to pay ridiculous prices from the big box stores. read more

I have no words to describe my experience with this shop. My wife has used them to alter her interview suites but more importantly she recently used them to repair her wedding dress which had been originally altered by a tailor shop associated with the bridal shop where she purchased the dress. My wife had gone in for her final fitting at the bridal shop and she came away extremely disappointed. With only a week to go before the wedding we were in dire straights to have the dress altered correctly. My wife remembered the amazing work that Lee had done on her suits and she decided to take the dress to Lee. Lee went above and beyond to make sure the dress was looking as good as it could by the wedding day. She had Kelly come in for a couple of fittings and worked late into the night to get the dress repaired. When she finished her work she had repaired the mistakes that the other shop had made and my wife looked stunning in the newly altered dress. I will take care of all my future tailoring needs my going to see Lee. She takes pride in her work and she truly cares about her customers. read more

This place is great. I took my dress that had a small tear in the shoulder to this place based on good reviews online. It was cheap, and looked like the hole was never there in the first place. Great work read more

This place is great! I had to have a prom dress altered six days before my prom. I read the reviews about Sew Perfectly on here and I decided it sounded like a good place. Lee was able to remove several yards of fabric from the bottom of my dress and turn it into a corset (the dress was a couple inches too tight) in the back-- in only three days!! The price was great, especially given how much fabric needed to be removed. When I went to pick up the dress she even steamed the bottom for no extra charge! I highly recommend Sew Perfectly if you need any alterations done quickly and efficiently. read more

Awesome tailor! I've taken a lot of my clothes in for alterations - everything from basic jeans hemming to more complicated suit alterations. They always do a great job, and they turn everything around on time. Highly recommended! read more

I wish I could give Sew Perfectly six stars! Ly not only does fantastic work, but which is to me, almost as important as the tailoring, the friendliness and genuine desire to please all of the customers who are lucky enough to find her. Ly always greets everyone with a warm and genuine smile and I was glad when she finally decided to close Mondays because she works so hard, and that often includes after closing hours in order to fulfill a promise to a customer. I really cannot recommend this place highly enough! read more

We brought in suits to be altered for medical school interviews and Lee was very attentive as she listened to how we wanted the suits to fit. She was honest, yet professional in her advice (I've had other tailors be very rude- so I appreciated this immensely). The alterations were timely, and her costs are fair. We have used her services multiple times now for professional alterations, and we have never had any issues! HIGHLY recommend this business for its professionalism and trustworthiness! read more

I highly recommend This place. Lee does an excellent job pinning and fitting. She is a perfectionist, which is exactly what I wanted. The alterations needed for my evening gown were complex. I am petite and the gown was designed for a tall person. She found some unevenness in the original dress, and she also corrected some alterations of their own in my second fitting. At the final fitting, it was perfect! She also did some alterations on two other formal dresses, with the same results. I will go back for sure read more

I brought in a (vintage) dress I am wearing as a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding. The dress was too large on top and needed new elastic in the waist. The stitch quality and fit were both amazing, and they got it done in two days. Super reasonable prices too! I've had bridal boutiques price gouge me in the past. This place is great! read more

I went to Sew Perfectly for the first time after reading all the good reviews. I took in two dresses that needed alterations. Lee was polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. In two days the dresses were done and look great! Definitely will recommend and will return. Roselily read more

Altered my bridesmaid dress very well (tightened the straps and shortened the hem) in just a few days and for a very reasonable price. I paid less than what the other bridesmaid shops at other tailors around town, and they were less satisfied. Customer service was excellent. Highly recommend for formal gowns. read more

Beware! They charge double what everyone else does. And the items they were to take in were still too large. One zipper was bulging due to poor workmanship, so I had to bring it back to be corrected. Although I came in two days after it was due to be completed, it still wasn't done. They told me to come back two hours later and it still wasn't done. I will never go back. read more

I brought my wedding dress in which was ordered way too big by the bridal shop I bought the dress from and Lee was able to fit the dress perfectly. She also fixed the front of my dress as it was not fitting right and the dress looks amazing. So glad that I went to SewPerfectly, I also had one of my bridesmaids take her dress there. Lee was so nice and took the time to explain all the changes she was making to my dress along the way. I highly reccommend SewPerfectly read more

I've never been to an alterations place before and this was a wonderful first experience! I asked for the slit in my dress to be brought up 2 inches and for it to be ironed and it only costed me about 22 dollars- which was a small price to pay for the beautiful workmanship! The slit was identical when I came to pick it up, I couldn't even tell where they had done the alteration. It was very timely as well- I was able to pick it up 2 days earlier than I needed it on short notice. I will definitely be going back for any other alteration needs! read more

I needed to have a dress taken in, and brought it to Sew Perfectly. The owner had me in my dress and was expertly fitting it within minutes. She gave me the option of picking it up any time and we decided on a date a week and a half after I dropped it off as I didn't need it immediately. The day after dropping it off, I found out I actually needed my dress 5 days sooner than we agreed upon. When I called Sew Perfectly the owner told me it wouldn't be a problem to have it done (much to my relief!) and when I picked up my dress, it was absolutely perfect. I can't believe how well she was able to fit my dress in just a few minutes! I'll definitely be back in the future. Highly recommend. read more

I am beyond pleased with the service I've received here. I've brought several button up shirts and pants that were expertly tailored to my body and preferences. Most amazingly, she took in 3.5 inches through the hip section of my new leather jacket. I have disproportionately wide shoulders and have never had a structured jacket that fit me properly. In my thirties I decided to finally go for it and get a leather jacket that fit through my shoulders and try to get it tailored. She did such an amazing job and even lined up some very tricky seems in the back. It looks like it was made for me. I didn't think it was possible to have a jacket that wasn't right through the back and shoulders and/or baggy around my hips. She's also done repairs for me like fixing a button, belt loop, and hole in the crotch of my husband's shorts. Everything was perfect and well priced. And I got things back faster than I expected even though I said there was no rush. I used yelp reviews to guide my choice and am happy to agree with all of the glowing reviews. She's amazing at figuring out how to make your clothes fit their best, answers questions helpfully, and is so nice. The shop is welcoming and run efficiently. I will be bringing all my alterations there now on. read more

I stopped by today needing a dress to be hemmed asap. I asked if it was possible to have the dress done by next Tuesday before I leave for a family trip, thinking it would be a stretch. The super sweet lady told me that it would be done in 30 minutes!! The dress fits so well now and the price was extremely reasonable. I'll definitely be back :) read more

Great place to take your alterations to! They do excellent work, are very reasonably priced & happy to see you come in!

I have had two dresses altered here. They both turned out wonderfully. Beautiful to start and even more beautiful after altered to fit me. I will be returning again and again. Loved the work. read more

Lee has been doing alterations for me for awhile. Lately, I gave her a new challenge: I have several silk jackets that I really like. Unfortunately, they were purchased in the 1980's when I was working...which means that they had extra large shoulder pads and were extra long. Lee put in smaller shoulder pads, lifted the shoulder seams, made the pockets smaller, shortened the length, and adjusted the lining to match the changes. Essentially re-making the jackets. However, I now have jackets that I can wear again and at a cost a lot less than buying new jackets. If you need a very good tailor, Lee is the one. read more

I just had my wedding gown done with Lee, the owner of Sew Perfectly, who is an absolutely wonderful seamstress and a delight to work with. I consider my wedding dress to be the most important garment I will ever have someone work on, so I was extremely nervous about getting it altered (and it needed a lot of work!), but she did an amazing job. I found her shop after having been to another seamstress in town that made me very discouraged about the work the train would require to bustle, in addition to fitting the dress by taking it in at the bust and waist. The dress has 6 layers of fabric sewn together with intricate lace detail, and where others expressed that it was practically impossible, Lee was confident yet extremely careful. She found a very secure and beautiful way to arrange the bustle and did so in a way I am extremely happy with. She should take great pride in the work she does. She is very clear with what she will do, and does exactly that. She even found a creative fix to a last minute change I wanted and made it look flawless. She is so good, one of my bridesmaids even ended up having her tailor some work pants on the side! Sew Perfectly is a good, honest and affordable business that I would highly recommend anyone to put their trust in. Thank you, Lee! read more
