Tailoring for garments that deserve a second life
Fine Stitch reshapes clothing with careful alterations, redesign consultations, and upcycling projects that make the most of each garment.
Your alteration process
A simple process that keeps the project clear from first inquiry to final collection.
We inspect the fabric, seams, and construction to understand what the garment can support.
You receive a redesign consultation, a clear scope, and a project quote for approval.
Our workshop carries out the remodelling, then we review the fit or finish before collection.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about remodelling, fit checks, and project approval.
How does the alteration process begin?
We begin with a garment inspection to review fabric, seams, condition, and the changes you want. After that, we confirm the scope and provide a quote before any work starts.
Can I bring my own materials?
Yes, customer-supplied materials can be reviewed for a project. We check whether they suit the garment and the planned redesign before approval.
How long does a redesign project take?
Turnaround depends on the garment, the design, and workshop capacity. For redesign projects, the usual estimate is 10 to 20 business days after approval.
Can you match the original trims?
We can often reuse original fabric, thread, or trim when it is suitable and available. Exact matching cannot be guaranteed until materials are confirmed.
What payment methods are available?
We accept card payment, bank transfer, and cash on collection.
