What would you name a mending/alterations service

I’m a self employed seamstress but until my toddler starts nursery I’m having to take on much smaller work as I don’t have the time or space for making garments at the moment, I want to advertise it as a service separate to the clothes I make but need to think of some kind of name to use!

I do mending (patching/darning etc) and minor alterations (taking up hems etc). Focusing on the sustainability side of it. Puns are welcome but nothing too cheesy Grin

Seams to me

From other posts on MN, you perhaps should think about offering a badge sewing on service for those with DC in Brownies/Cubs/Guides/Scouts etc!

Definitely advertise for badge sewing, I hate it and happily pay £1.50 per badge at my local dry cleaner,

Thanks all! The local fabric shop is called Sew and So so I can’t use anything too similar to that. I’m liking a lot of these suggestions Smile
