Customer Feedback

I have been visiting Abi for several years, that being testament enough. I still want to say that I have found Abi to be a very talented, professional and conscientious seamstress. Whether remodelling an old item, or sewing on a popper, Abi has always made me feel welcomed and a valued customer. Abi is realistic and offers excellent advice, she has taken a genuine interest in who I am and what I like the wear. Abi always finds time to help me as I often call in and want everything yesterday! Abi is very approachable and always offers an ‘aftersales service’ to feel that you can go back if something isn’t quite right. I can’t thank you enough for everything.

Abi can make high street clothes and dresses look amazing – she is your own personal, bespoke Tailor – lovely, friendly, efficient service as well

On the numerous occasions I have been to see Abi for alterations, she has always been polite and helpful. The work is always on time and carried out perfectly. Her advice is invaluable and I never feel foolish when asking questions

Over the course of the last 3 years Abi has done many alterations for me. From simple trouser turnups to overcoat and jacket redesigns, I get more pleasure out of redesigning old clothes than buying new and without Abi’s vision it wouldn’t be possible. I highly recommend her and trust her advice totally.

Abi over the years has gone above and beyond what any other seamstress would have done., calling her with an emergency jobs she’s always fitted me in and made sure she has helped me out. Abi’s work is first class and you wouldn’t never be disappointed. She is my first point of call and would never go anywhere else.

I have been coming to Abi for over 4 years. In that time, she has altered, redesigned and reconstructed all manner of clothing for me. What excites me is her vision and appreciation of what I am trying to achieve. I now have vintage clothing that has been tweaked to give it a more contemporary look but still retains the original elements. But apart from redesigning, she has taken in, shortened and released seams with great success. I cannot recommend Abi enough

It is an absolute pleasure to do business with Abi Taylor at Make It Sew. She not only does a great job, every time, but she also does it with a warm, friendly, can do attitude. It’s an excellent service that I thoroughly recommend to anyone

Abi’s dressmaking service is exceptional and we have always found her standard of work to be excellent. Abi is reliable and efficient and always has a warm, friendly and cheerful disposition. Her turn-around time for completing work is fast, without compromising quality and on occasions where quick emergencies have occurred, Abi has carried out the work while I waited. I don’t know what we’d do without her!

I’m a size 8 with an up and down figure which makes it hard for me to shop at some places or buy certain clothes as a lot of fashion thinks you should go in at the waist and come out at the hips which I don’t do! Thanks to Abi I can still shop wherever I like as she just makes it fit me! I’ve been going to her for years and I’ve given her some right challenges! She always tries her hardest and has some great ideas and is very honest and upfront. She gives me the confidence to be able to buy whatever I want knowing that she will make it look great and fit just the way I like it”

I’ve been a customer of Abi for a number of years, mostly to have ‘off the peg’ business suits adjusted to fit me properly. She has an excellent eye to advise on how best to tailor clothes to fit and pays attention to the details that less careful dressmakers sometimes overlook. The fact that I’ve never once had to have an item redone or adjusted for a second time speaks to the quality of Abi’s work. I find her prices very reasonable and I never have to wait long to get clothes back. I have used a number of dressmakers in the past but on discovering Abi, I don’t go anywhere else now

I frequently use Abi for alterations and repairs. She is professional and friendly and her work is meticulous. She is also creative and has been a huge help with putting costumes together for my children!

I've just had my final wedding dress fitting with Abi after she has made all the adjustments. My dress now fits perfectly, she has done such a good job and has been so friendly and helpful throughout
