Walked into the store and was greeted by a nice older woman, asking if she could help me find anything. Great little store, nice selection of fabrics, lots of sewing notions that are hard to find.I also found out they do alterations and repairs, and will certainly utilize this service in the very near future. Overall a very pleasant experience. Would highly recommend.

Sew Nice Fabrics is a gem of a little store. I am a highly experienced seamstress & this is the place I go to when Im looking for something that I cant find anywhere else, such as the time I was in search of a coat weight winter white cashmere. Sew Nice had exactly what I was looking for, as they usually do. Sew Nice is a mom & pop kind of a shop, a rarity in this day & age of huge box type stores which primarily stock cheaply made, low quality fabric. The owner is highly experienced in her field & extremely knowledgeable, as well as friendly & helpful. I give this place a 5 star rating & consider myself very lucky that I have this shop to go to.Unfortunately theres just NO pleasing some people.

I loved the owner. She was so helpful with choosing fabrics and giving me beginner tips. (Fabric shop is small, but you can probably find everything you need there...its well stocked.) Cant wait for my next project.

My wife dropped off a pair of 7 for All Mankind designer jeans ($109 purchase price) and asked for a designer hem keeping the original hem. Several weeks later, she picked the jeans up and the original hem had been chopped off and a standard hem had been made to the jeans. The woman running the store was incredibly rude and unapologetic to my wife, and refused to refund our money for the work ($10 for the hem) and she refused to replace/refund the cost of the jeans. We now see several extremely poor reviews online for her shop, and wish we had seen them prior to bringing our business to her. The woman claims that she did not know what a designer hem with the original hem meant, and that my wife should have shown her when she dropped them off. However, the woman did not ask my wife to show her, and feigned that she knew exactly what my wife wanted. We just cannot believe that she took the job without being sure of what was requested. My wife will not wear the jeans at this point. They are ruined (although the woman at the shop claims they are fine). DO NOT USE THIS STORE FOR TAILORING!!! TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

I simply needed thread for an upholstery project. I had read the rude reviews and thought to myself How bad could it be? It was so bad I almost laughed out loud! I was greeted by the older lady with What are YOU doing in here? I told her what I was doing and she waved her hand at the thread selection and mumbled something about how I should go to another store for that. When I asked her if the thread I had chosen was treated for sun exposure she told me there was no such thing. I actually feel sorry for this horrible, horrible woman. Something very bad must have happened to her to leave her so bitter and hateful. Im amazed the store is still in business.

Any one claiming to have had less than top quality service from this shop doesnt know what they are talking about. I have had a working relationship with the owner for the better part of 25 years and wouldnt have continued if there was a problem. You can only fit so many line items in any specific area so if you complain about the selection of fabrics being on the low side, just look at the square footage of the shop verses the amount of bolts of fabric and you will be amazed at the selection offered.To the person that complained of the jeans not being done properly, I have been sewing for over 42 years and have never heard of the type of hem your wife requested. If it was popular in another part of the country then it doesnt mean it applies here. If I paid $110. for a pair I wouldve made sure they fit right to begin with.Long story short you cant please everyone so keep that in mind when you shop around.

I walked into this store, and felt immediately uncomfortable. The owner was horribly rude! She seemed like my request was impossible. I would never recommend for anyone to shop here. Maybe its time she retires, she clearly DOES NOT like her job.
