Inside our workroom

Pinned, pressed, stitched tight.

A good alteration is decided before the first seam is unpicked. Here is how we pin a fitting, set up the machines and keep every bench in order.

Hands guiding cloth under the foot of a sewing machine.
Both hands flat on the cloth either side of the foot, so a long seam runs straight and even from the first stitch to the last.
Hands at work beside a tin of pins and pink fabric.
A tin of pins open beside the cloth, ready for marking a hem on fitting day.
Packets of sewing needles laid out on a table.
Hand and machine needles sorted by size and type, so the right point is always within reach.

A pinstripe jacket on the form, measured again before the sleeves are set back in.
A tape measure, thread and scissors.
Thread, tape and gold-handled shears, the three things laid out on the bench before every pinning.
