Rosita was amazing! She took my last minute request and did a phenomenal job. I was in a rush during pick up to prepare for my event and was ready to take the dress without checking it properly but during the fitting, she stopped and noticed things that I wouldn’t have picked up and fixed it right then and there. She has an eye for detail and will make sure that you leave with your alterations done well!! Thanks Rosita!

Rosita is awesome! She helped me last minute with my second wedding dress alterations and made it fit like a dream. I was really worried about taking it to a tailor shop who would overcharge and do bad work on it, so I found Rosita. After reading the reviews, I was convinced! She did a great job on my dress and even tailored my wife’s suit as well. Thank you, Rosita!

Rosita was so lovely to work with! She altered my wedding dress and it is absolutely perfect! I am in love with how it ended up! I had to get the straps shortened, a lining added to the bodice, add a bustle and hem it. It was a lot and she did it all for an affordable price. She was also incredibly quick! She finished it in less than a month! As an expert, she shared her expertise but was very receptive to my ideas and desires for the dress. It was a great collaboration and I would definitely work with her again!

Rosita is EXCELLENT at her craft. I found her through this Thumbtack, and although she was quite a ways out from where I lived, just by our conversation, I can tell she was a pro and understood what I needed. I took a chance and traveled to what on some days was 2 hours to get to her. But, she was she worth every minute spent on the road. Her meticulous attention to detail, and deep caring about the art of her craftsmanship is like none I’ve ever seen. She literally transformed a gown that did not fit by any means, into my dream design. This was for my daughter’s wedding and it was important to me that I looked and felt my best. I received compliments all night long and never felt more beautiful. Rosita is a genius and really wants her client to not only look their best, but feel their best as well. She is professional, courteous, punctual, responsive and pleasant all around. If you’re looking for all of these qualities, look no further when you are seeking your next seamstress, because Ms. Rosita is the real thing!!! Thank you Rosita, you have found a loyal client in me.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Depends on the project.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Speak to the customer to get a sense of their vision for the dress. Make suggestions, if necessary, based on my expertise and taking into consideration any budget constraints. Supply a preliminary quote based on our discussion. However, a more precise quote is given after a fitting with the customer and all alterations are identified.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
30 years of sewing experience. I respect tradition but do think "outside of the box" thus am in the unique position of being able to relate to a customer's vision.
