Hi I’m Chloe, I do basic alterations with a domestic machine and by hand. Simple mending and hemming in Darling Heights. Drop off at Westbrook available.

Scrubs! ⭐️

Workwear should be comfy and fit correctly to allow mobility. Hems too long, scrub shirt too boxy? I can fix that 🙂‍↕️

This set I shortened the shirt, hemmed the pant legs, and shortened the pants at the waist to create that perfect fit.

✨2026 Price/Service List✨

A little updated list of what I do and how much it can cost ⭐️

As of yesterday I’m 11 weeks post op from surgery and getting back into life and work again! It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve done to date.

01/12/2025

Hi all!

A nerve wracking announcement, I’ll be going in for an incredibly long awaited surgery on Wednesday (03.12) and will be a little incapacitated for at least a week or two. Please continue to message about jobs but just keep in mind I probably won’t be able to complete any rush jobs 🥰

Thank you for your continued support! 💕

ADHD + alterations 🤪

Anyone else stop in the middle of something to satiate the ideas in your head?

Mid suit jacket alterations and I had to stop to make myself a tailors ham. This will make things more efficient for me but is efficiency dropping what you’re doing to make something? 🤣

Got a hole in your favorite pants? Need something taken in or let out? I do mending and alterations—whether you want a subtle fix or a fun, visible repair like this star patch! ✨

I love bringing new life to worn-out clothes, these pants had holes from superglue and as they continue to wear I’ll continue to patch them and create a starry night.

so if you’ve got something that needs a little TLC, send me a message!

📚✏️ School Uniform Hems

I currently do all my blind hems by hand 🙌🏼 I love the final results every time. Clean and well… blind!

This skirt needed a new button, plus I couldn’t leave out a good closeup of the work of my new overlocker 🪡 (tension has been fun to play with for sure)

Don’t hesitate to reach out to me to get your uniforms fitting right!
