I used to be an inveterate fabric shopper and sewed for myself and others since childhood, getting…read moremy first "toy" Singer that actually sewed dolls' clothes. My granddaughter has it now after her Dad learned on it too, when he was young. Because of aging and vision loss, I no longer do much sewing, just the quick small repair using extra lights and magnification. Also I find I often need to "remodel" an item that I bought with the plan to use an alteration to the construction. That is what led me to Sewbo today as there are no more multi craft stores left near me. I prefer quality parts and local ownership so the loss of one chain was really no big deal. But the remaining fabric store, one of my long time favorites, does not carry the sort of thing I was looking for. It specializes in high-end classic fabrics and has a talented staff in more formal design and construction. It pains me to no longer be able to support that business which I had for nearly 50 years. Somewhere along in recent times, Sewbo opened quite close to me but in a rather obscure corner of a shopping center we use regularly for other things. For those confused by its address on Baseline, know that it is on the "back" (south side) of the Basemar shopping center, behind Dougs Diner but with its own parking accessed from 27th Way which connects 28th St to Broadway. You can turn into the store access from 27th Way next to the Core Yoga building. With the reserved parking spaces and before lunch, we had no trouble taking an empty space. Not only does the store carry many choices in contemporary fabrics, they carry lots of notions like zippers and threads. They also teach classes, even for children, which is a great summer project. I wish my granddaughter was here to take one. I found exactly the zipper I was looking for, their colors and lengths stock was expansive. The price was minimal though it appears to be high quality too. A staff member greeted us immediately upon entering and was so helpful in finding the exact type zipper I wanted.. I wish even more that I still was sewing regularly as it is so nice to have another comprehensive quality local source for projects.

My favorite part is how she gets you working on projects right away. It's nice walk away with a finished item and feel that sense of accomplishment. She insists there's no such thing as a "bad stitch." She just wants you to love what you've created and enjoy the process. I would 100% recommend her to anyone. She makes learning so much fun!

We meet Kyle right outside of the studio by their Woodshop stand sign. We walked down a ramp and to the last suite on the left (I believe). The shop smelled like fresh wood chips and had great circulation. We learned so much from Kyle and appreciate his patience as he tried to test our math/fraction abilities haha. But even with the math, Kyle made it felt easy and informed us of the power tools and made the machines less scary. It was such a great experience and our bookshelves turned out sooo great! We gained more than just bookshelves but confidence in building and a spark for ideas for the next projects. My wife will be joining the intermediate class and build more things for our home. So happy a studio like this exists!

Thank goodness I found Krista and went with her, because she did exactly what I wanted in a timely manner, was incredibly friendly, and very fairly priced. Better yet, I had an emergency necessary modification a week before my wedding and she was able to get me in in a days time and correct the issue right then and there. I am so grateful I found Krista, and will confidently pass her name on to anybody I know needing wedding dress alterations in the denver metro area.

From the moment I stepped into her studio, I felt welcomed and at ease. Krista is incredibly kind and attentive, ensuring that every detail was perfect. Her extensive knowledge and talent truly shine through in her work. She took the time to understand my vision and made sure I loved every alteration. When I expressed a desire for more comfort in the bodice, she added an additional piece that blended seamlessly with the dress--so much so that it looked like it was part of the original design! Krista works efficiently without compromising quality, and her passion for her craft is evident in every stitch. On my wedding day, I received countless compliments on my dress. Many guests told me it was the most beautiful wedding dress they had ever seen! Thanks to Krista, I felt confident and comfortable throughout the day. If you need alterations, look no further--Krista is the best!

Overall: Trustworthy place for alterations and custom work…read more He's clear about what's realistic, what isn't, what he can do, and why. Alterations: George transformed a delicate silk dress so the top half not only fit but flattered me. It had the perfect balance between loose and structured. He added a built-in bra with no visible trace and perfectly matched darts on both sides, plus a high-quality liner that feels invisible. I can just throw the dress on and feel comfortable and polished without extra layers. Worth every penny. Fabric: He sources materials within a reasonable budget without sacrificing quality (though some fabrics may cost more, I think it's worth it). He found a perfect liner match for my silk dress that feels incredibly soft. Design: Versatile with a strong eye for design across styles, from casual to formal to couture-like pieces. He can also create custom clothes tailored to your body and personal style. Price: Reasonable. Quality work reflects the value. Sewing Classes: Two great experiences so far. Hands-on, practical, and tailored to your pace and project. Relaxed and informal, which I like. He starts by getting you comfortable on the sewing machine right away and shares helpful tips as you progress. He's patient with questions and plans to offer more project-based classes in the future, like tote bags. My Projects so far: 1. Organza blazer: Adjusted the upper sleeve design to hide small holes. Now, it looks subtly more unique. Learned how organza fabric behaves and how to plan, prep, and mark before execution. 2. Sheer burnout velvet top: Undoing a previous alteration and redesigning the fit of a delicate, boxy top with two finicky layers. He walked me through the full process--from prep to execution--including stitch removal, fabric behavior, needle selection, machine basics and maintenance, tools worth having (and not), measuring and marking, steaming techniques, cutting precision, darts, shaping the armpit area cleanly, secure stitching methods, and possible fixes if mistakes happen. Next session will focus on finishing the top, adding a built-in side zipper, and learning how to use my new Pfaff sewing machine. Space: Small but well-equipped with multiple machines, a few seating spots, and one curtained dressing area. Tucked into an alley among creative, independent businesses with a welcoming community feel. Extra: His gentle, golden-eyed dog, Gray, makes the space even more welcoming. He loves pets and tug-of-war and stays quietly nearby.
