Alterations Workshop Winter Session



Have you ever wanted to alter your clothes yourself? Tired of bringing your clothes to the tailor?  Want to shorten those slacks but never knew how to do it?  

Spend some time with Em, one of our shop garment and costume making experts to make alternations to items you bring to the workshop!  They will work with you 1:1 to assess your garment, discuss alteration tactics and step you through application.  You will learn and alter at the same time! 

This is a hands-on workshop where you will work with Em on the projects you bring to class.  They will provide alteration tools to use during class (or bring your own to have Em show you how to use them) and will recommend alteration tools/supplies which you may purchase at a 15% discount. Let us know what you want to alter before class, so we can make the best use of your time!

Students must bring their own project & basic sewing supplies. Some ideas of what to bring:
- Dress that needs straps shortened
- Pants that need to be taken in
- Garment that needs to be hemmed or shortened
- Tailor a bodice to your curves

Minimum Class Size:  There must be at least two students signed up for the class for it to proceed.  We will let you know 24 hours in advance if we do not have enough students and will give you an opportunity to sign up for an alternative class.  


You may cancel class up to 24 hrs in advance of your class start time; after which you will forfeit your class fee unless we can fill your spot from the waiting list, or you can send a friend.  We appreciate your understanding on this - as a small business, we are fortunate enough to have only the best instructors and they need to be paid  All cancellations must be received in writing, info@santacruzvacnsew.com.  Sorry, no exceptions.
