Alterations Workshop

Practice clothing alterations at this Brooklyn sewing workshop.



2 hours Location DUMBO Class size 1 to 8 guests   $125

This sewing workshop is perfect for those who have some sewing experience as it will build on that knowledge to teach you how to alter clothing.
You are invited to bring 2-5 of your own garments and we will go through how to alter them. There is no guarantee that we’ll be able to finish a garment in the three hour allotment but we will go over as much information relevant to your projects as possible.
Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

Recent reviews of Alterations Workshop

  • 4/5 from Bryan Braswell, attended May 2026: It was extremely informative and helpful. I felt like I learned and was able to alter most of the garments I brought. The only thing that was off is that the purchase noted that the class was from 2-5pm and once it reached 4pm the instructor noted that the class was over.
