REVIEWS

I am sad seeing Jeanette is moving away, but I am happy for Idaho gaining a new skilled seamstress. I purchased my wedding dress in summer 2020 and looked for many seamstresses close to my area with outstanding skills. After reading about her many years of experience on her website, I knew I had found the right seamstress. She's friendly, honest, patient, professional, and skilled.
My wedding was postponed twice due to Covid. Jeanette offered to store my dress at her place to save me the hassle of bringing it back. She's such a thoughtful person. It was a great experience working with her because she made each fitting fun.
She has finished altering my dress today and it looks stunning. Thank you again for the hard work. I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day. Good luck with your new beginning in Idaho!

I met Jeanette 1 week ago and can only say this: I can't wait to get married just so I can have her make my dress!
I called her on a Saturday and she was so helpful and although she was completely booked she gave me a few options the following week. I explained that I will be graduating soon and, just as many people, Covid-19 messed up everything and all I had was a dress I never wore because it was way too big. Jeanette was completely open to "helping" me and as she's marking my dress I knew that she's extremely knowledgeable about her work.
I am leaving 5 stars even though I haven't gotten my dress yet and can't wait to come back when I get my dress and say that she deserves 10 more stars!

I purchased my wedding dress back in March of 2021 for my October wedding and immediately was on the search for a seamstress. Came across Jeanette and she responded ASAP to my message. We set up an appointment for the next week. The initial appointment was great, she made me fell real comfortable and she definitely knows what she is talking about. Since it was so early for alterations she told me to reach out to her again in July so she can schedule me for August. I reached out on 07/14/21 and she informed that she is moving and no longer taking appointments. I expressed that I was bummed and that I thought I was ahead and didn't have to worry because I had her. I understand life happens, but I was still bummed and now a little worry that I wont find anyone else. I asked if maybe she can refer another seamstress, and that I would have to get on this ASAP and hope the next one can work on my dress. She responded and told me that she doesn't know anyone else and that Yelp would be my best option. Wish I could have had her to do my dress. Don't put all your eggs in one basket always have a back up is my lesson learned.

I am extremely overdue in writing this review, but I need to share my story of how Jeanette saved my dress.

I bought my wedding gown at an Alfred Angelo closeout sale nine months before my wedding date. Around four months later I brought the dress to a family friend whom my parents insisted I bring it to because she used to make wedding dresses. She ends up hanging on to the dress until a month before the wedding. When I get it back, I notice my dress was hemmed like a pair of pants, just folded over. The outer layer of my dress is lace and it looked like a loofa. My so-called bustle was a hole through the backside of my dress to just pull the hanger loop out from underneath. It was a mess. I showed my MOH and bridesmaids. It got to a point where they told me to just buy a new dress. I really liked my Disney dress so I made a few calls to some mobile seamstresses. They all said it was too late for my dress to be fixed.

This is where Jeanette answers my call and says she could take a look and see if it can be done in 2 weeks. The next morning, I get off work from my night shift, shower, and rush on over to her place which was only 10 minutes away. I put on my dress and she starts to take apart the stitching my family friend did to the lace. It was salvageable. I saw all the dresses she had made and placed on display. I knew I was at the right place. She specialized in lace.

Four days after I left my dress with Jeanette, she calls me saying my dress was finished. She really worked her magic! It was ahead of schedule and she lifted so much weight off my shoulders. I tried on the dress and it was perfect. She made a beautiful bustle with three hook points, and showed me how to find the hooks so I could show my bridesmaids.

I cannot thank Jeanette enough for taking on the mess of my dress. I highly recommend her for dress alterations and custom made dresses.

If I could I'd give 10 's. I'm beyond happy with my wedding dress, it's absolutely beautiful! Jeanette made me feel so comfortable and was very quick at altering my dress. We even added a belt to it & she was able to bustled my dress last minute. I can't wait for my wedding & will definitely posts pictures of my dress

Bought a dress pretty last minute for our elopement and even though it was custom sizing the straps were it tight. Brought it to Jeanette and she was uncertain if she would be able to make it work, but SHE MADE IT WORK. It was a difficult fix that I was too worried to take on myself so I figured better safe than sorry and took it in to someone. I had planned on visiting other tailors but Jeanette was so kind and friendly and gave me such a great price I couldn't turn it down. She worked really quickly too even though I didn't need the dress for another month after handing it off.

Would absolutely recommend her and go back if I ever need any dressses tailored again.

I was in a pinch to find someone to do my wedding dress alterations as I left it last minute with all the craziness! She did an amazing job! The price was also very reasonable. My dress was completed very quickly & can't wait to wear this Saturday.

My fiancé and I recently postponed our wedding due to the COVID19 response. My original dress was not completed and I had to buy a dress online that obviously was not fitted for me.

I was not able to find anyone to help me alter because almost all businesses were closed. Luckily, I found Jeanette and she was quick to respond and made herself available to help me.

After responsibly trying on and handing off the dress, I received it back just 3 days later and it fit perfectly!

Jeanette was friendly, professional, highly-responsive, and provided quality work for us!

We were able to have a beautiful day and I felt like a total angel in my dress! We're so grateful for Jeanette helping us out in these desperate times.

Thank you Jeanette!

Can I tell you how Jeanette helped me fit in my dress 5 days before I needed to wear it?! I bought a bridesmaid dress back in October for a wedding in May, and I thoroughly overestimated the time I had to fit into it, so searching for help was a very last minute option on my part. My sister and I gave her a call and told her the situation, and Jeanette asked to bring it over so she could take a look at it. She saw how it currently fit and had a plan of how to reframe the dress (I don't know seamstress lingo but knew I could trust her!) and she was totally up for a challenge. Even though she mentioned she was booked she created space for me, which I was truly grateful for. She called for me to pick it up the next day! She worked her magic and the dress fit, and I couldn't have been more relieved. It felt so much better to relax going into the weekend knowing I didn't have to stress out about whether or not it would fit for my best friend's wedding - she made it happen and on such short notice. Thank you so much, Jeanette!! I appreciate you!

Jeannette is awesome! I first met her with when she worked on two of my friend's wedding dresses in 2015. They each referred more friends to her because she's that good and reasonable. Now full circle, she helped me with my wedding gown in March/April 2021. My boyfriend and I decided to elope and had to quickly get our act together. Jeannette was great with all the alterations and worked very quickly. I'm glad I had a trusted person to work on my dress for our special day. I recommend Jeannette without reservations.

Jeanette is simply, the best! Jeannette made me feel welcomed and comfortable. She is very personable and down to earth. She is easy to communicate with and responds quickly. She did an awesome job altering my wedding dress...its perfect. Thank you Jeanette!

I'm absolutely in love with the work Jeanette did on my wedding dress. My dress fits like a glove. Jeanette was easy to communicate with and she made me feel very comfortable throughout the whole process. I'm pleased with her work and I highlight recommend her.

Hannah S.

I had the best experience getting my wedding dress altered with Jeanette. She made the experience incredibly comfortable and did an amazing job on my alterations. She helped make my wedding dress fit perfectly. I could not feel more grateful for coming across her on Yelp. She is genuinely one of the kindest and warmest people I've ever met and will definitely use her for any alterations in the future!

Heather A.

My daughter had her dream dress in mind... Paige presented her vision to Jeanette, mind you this was a dress no one else had. Jeanette took her dream and made it a reality and then some!! Stunning, gorgeous and perfection!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Diane K.

My (new) daughter-in-law chose Jeanette to do the alterations to her wedding dress. From our first meeting with her, she was wonderful to work with. She altered the wedding dress so it fit like a glove! The bustle she added took some work, but with Jeanette's expertise, it was beautiful! She even allowed me to video how to put it up, so I would remember on the day of the wedding! If you use Jeanette to alter your wedding dress, you can be assured she will take loving care of it, and you will not be disappointed!

I cannot recommend Sew In Love highly enough! I can't believe the wonders Jeanette did on my wedding dress. I was so, so nervous about bustling my tulle dress, as the layers were differing lengths and I knew it would be a challenge. I shouldn't have worried, though, because it came out more beautifully than I could've imagined, even though she had to put in 26 bustle points! Highly, highly recommend!

I purchased my wedding dress off-the-rack many sizes too small in the chest, thinking that letting it out would be a simple task. After visiting Jeanette for the first time, I soon realized that my dress with its beaded top probably couldn't be saved. Jeanette was very straightforward with me that there was a 25% chance she could get my wedding dress to fit. I appreciated her honesty because I needed to know ASAP if I had to purchase a new gown!

She was quick to get working on my dress and soon respond with a verdict - somehow, someway she was able to let the top out almost 4 inches. After sewing in cups and adding a simple bustle, I was out the door with all my wedding alterations done! Jeanette is a true professional who's quick with her work and very reasonably priced. If I could go back in time, I'd have her custom make me a gown from the ground up. Thank you for saving my dress!
