I’ve only been in to re-hem pants. They have always been very thoughtful when adjusting the hem. And they are wonderfully kind.

Having lost weight for several seasons now Vera has been able to alter my clothes to suit my new frame. Her work is impeccable and she has saved a lot of my clothes from being discarded through weight loss. I recommend her highly. Brenda H.

I have been a client of Vera's for over 20 years for clothing alterations and have always found her work to be impeccable and affordable. I recently asked her to recover some pillows for me and she did a beautiful job (see below). I highly recommend her.

Vera is indeed a master and very experienced tailor. I needed major alterations done on a contemporary designed suited dress (lined) and delivered beyond my expectations! Hands down, she is the best in town! Thanks again Vera!

Vera went above and beyond to help me and my girlfriend to alter and fix a used leather motorcycle jacket that we bought used. Her responsiveness, generosity and friendliness was beyond what we expected. Highly recommend!

Oh my God. Vera is a very talented Lady, and she blew my mind away. I had doubts that she couldn't get it done in a week but wow that Lady can sew to a T. Mind you i brought two pairs of uniform pants, one winter jacket, and a short summer pants, and she did in one freaking week! I would recommend her 100%

Vera takes a lot of care and she will take on any job that she believes is doable whether big or small. She converted a pullover jacket to a zippered jacket and I’m sure that zipper and the stitching she did is going to last a lot longer than it would have had it come from a factory. To say “master” is an understatement; The superlative to describe her work has not been created yet.

Did an amazing job! So friendly and helpful, she knew exactly how to help us and could turn our alteration around in less than 24 hours and service was extraordinary!

I altered two blazers at this store. The store is very spacious and beautifully decorated. The owner not only did a fabulous job to fix the sleeves of my blazers, but also answered some questions about the issues I had with my other jackets. She is passionate about her work and trying to do the best to serve any customer. The price was reasonable and I am very happy about her work. I recommended her to all my friends.

We had a family wedding in Sept 2021. Vera did a wonderful job completing alterations on the bride's dress, the bride's sister's wedding outfit and the mother of the groom's dress. We were thrilled with her expertise and her helpful suggestions. Vera was very quick with the necessary alterations; she was almost as happy and excited about the wedding as we were. Vera is not only professional, but always has helpful suggestions and is a pleasure to know! Thank you Vera.

Vera was very helpful and kind. The small project I had brought her was finished within a few minutes and was very reasonably priced. I highly recommend her for any sewing or tailoring work you might need

Vera offers great service and exceptional value, I have been going to her for years (followed her from Lincoln Fields to her current location), highly recommended.

Vera will make you look GREAT! She has a keen eye, incredible knowledge of fabric and fit, and some would say a magical touch!

When I called to inquire about alterations to two suits for my upcoming TEDx Kanata video shoot, Vera explained that the store was closing for holidays in two days. However, instead of declining to help me, she made time in her busy schedule to take measurements and make the adjustments. Vera even met with me the day before she was to leave to ensure that everything fit properly and looked good.

The quality of her craftwomanship is exceptional. I would highly recommend her services to anyone, and look forward to returning in the future.

Vera goes above and beyond for her clients, offering incredible workmanship and exceptional customer service.

When I called to inquire about alterations to a suit, Vera explained that the store was closing for holidays in two days. However, instead of declining to help me, she made time in her busy schedule to take measurements, and even came in extra early the next day to ensure she finished the work. All in all, the turnaround was less than 24 hours, and the quality was exceptional. I would highly recommend her services to anyone, and will definitely be coming back in the future.

Excellent service, fantastic work and great pricing. Vera went above and beyond by adding a beautiful clasp on the back strap of my dress. I really appreciate the extra length she went to ensure my dress was perfect. I will be back for future alterations.

I have been going here for years and I have never been disappointed. She can do impossible alterations.

Not enough stars to represent the quality and service I received. Boys pants with two blown out knees altered to shorts. The quality of the alteration was of such quality, that you would never have known that they were pants in a former life. Highly recommend for quality work. Boys are still growing, will be back. Thank you.

Several other people had told me that reconstruction of my treasured but under utilized, hand knitted sweaters was nor practical. On chance I took one to Master Stitch Up and Vera had no hesitation, and did what was needed perfectly and reasonably. The conversion to fully zippered format was so comfortable and useful that I've had several others done including one with Eiffel Tower logo. All now more practical garments.

Very happy with the alterations to the denim skirt that the seamstress made. Brought it in two sizes too big and now it fits like a glove! The seamstress was also incredibly nice and very helpful.

A few weeks ago I brought a dressy, black skirt for alteration to Master-Stitch Up. The skirt was a few sizes too big, and also the side pockets had to be relocated. A few days later my skirt was perfectly fitted to my body and it is now ready for me to wear. This was a complicated job, but Vera did it professionally, beautifully, and quickly. She did an amazing job! I am extremely pleased with the result. Vera is a true Master Seamstress, and she's also very nice to deal with:) I definitely recommend her.

Originally visited this week for alterations of scrub pants. When I came to pick them up, I also brought a pair of ripped pants, thinking she could work on them at a later time. She grabbed the pants, and fixed them within 2 minutes, and at no charge. I am very impressed with the quality and the prices of this business. Will be using their services from now on. Thank you!

Very friendly and great prices. Staff listened to my concerns and did a great job fixing the purse. Matched it with the same color lock. My daughter was very happy to have her favorite purse back
