Make & Mend

Make & Mend Curtains, Soft Furnishings, Clothing Alterations, Repairs and more... A wide range of alterations can be performed to make your garments fit perfectly.

Clothing Alterations
Giving your clothes the designer look
No two people have the same shape, its a fact!.There’s no need to accept how the clothing manufacturers think we should be shaped. Curtain Alterations
Dressing windows perfectly
To save money, most curtain manufacturers mass produce curtains in just a few standard lengths and widths. Having your curtains made to measure is often expensive,

many times the value of the off-the-shelf products. Make and Mend can offer a seamstress service visiting your home, measuring your window space and then make the necessary alterations to your curtains so as to make them fit perfectly. Repairs
Don’t despair, I can repair
It’s so annoying when you buy a great jacket and then tear the pocket on a door handle, or you fall over and damage your trouser leg or skirt. The Make and Mend repair service is the perfect solution. Our seamstress will assess your damaged garment and advise you on the expected outcome free of charge. Party Costume Alterations
Making your party outfits fit more comfortably
Do you have the perfect dressing up party outfit, but it doesn’t quite fit any more? Bring it to us and we’ll measure you up and give your outfit a new lease of life. Make and Mend

They say variety is the spice of life ....Well before lunch I took up the hems of some work trousers, unpicked some curtain hems to adjust to the correct length, took the frill off a top replacing with a straight hem, repaired a zip in a ski jacket pocket, after lunch went to a customers house to make adjustment to her trousers to fit her just right whilst there I tacked a pair of 'challenging' chiffon trousers to the required length for another customer (you know who you are!!!!) Got myself a new work table its bigger and better than my last one great for curtains, and returned a pair of trousers to another customer . . . . . Lovely
