    Chelsea is the sweetest, most talented, passionate seemstress ever! She has helped me with everything from altering my thrift store find bridesmaid dress to fit perfectly to creating custom curtains! She is always so helpful and responsive. And I'm so impressed by her timeliness and quality. I always refer her to my friends and family near and far. :)

    Incredible Service!

    Chelsea was a dream to work with! She was communicative, thorough, and extremely talented. She took my dress to the next level! My sister insisted I work with her after she altered her dress, and I'm so glad I listened to her!

    Love Chelsea's Work!

    I'm so glad I found Chelsea! She has a great collection of before and afters of her work on her instagram, which was so helpful to see. She did a great job of talking through and showing me all the options I had for my bustle and train length. She always listened to my concerns and walked me through the pricing. Such a transparent process was a huge plus! Chelsea is such a kind and considerate person top of it all. I highly recommend going to her! 10/10!

    Best Alterations Shop in the Portland Area

    I wholeheartedly recommend Rethread Alterations. Chelsea was an absolute joy to work with. She was fun, flexible, kind, professional, and did an amazing job. She expertly reworked my wedding gown to make it just right and adjusted the hem on my reception dress. She absolutely saved the decoration on my wedding gown last-minute after a dry cleaning mishap just a few days before the wedding! She also expertly altered my dad's tuxedo jacket, which he was very pleased with.

    Best of the best!

    Chelsea was so amazing! She asked what I wanted done to my dress and did just that. I thought I would have to go couple more times after my first fitting but she had it done on the first go! I wasn't sure about how I wanted my train to be bustled but she gave me couple options and for the one I picked she did a video for me to take! it was so helpful and thorough. She is so sweet and Professional.

    Best Alterations!

    The alterations process can be intimidating, but Chelsea at Rethread
    Alterations made the process so fun and inviting! It felt as though I was getting my dress altered by a good friend. It was obvious from our conversations about my dress that she is knowledgeable and also cares about making her clients feel beautiful and confident in their dress.

    She offered suggestions about how to best alter my dress to make it work for me. I was worried about wearing a strapless dress for my reception and we added some small straps that could be put on just for the reception. We also went through all sorts of different bustle options and after the dress was finished Chelsea made an instructional video of how to tie up the bustle, which was SO helpful.

    I cannot recommend Chelsea enough. She is thoughtful, detail-oriented, and a joy to work with!

    Wedding dress alteration

    Chelsea was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish during the alteration process. She listened to the things I loved and helped to fix the things that just didn't fit right with my dress. My dress fit perfectly the day of the wedding and my husband fell in love when he got to see it for the first time.

    The Best Experience!

    I had the best experience working with Chelsea! She is incredibly talented, knowledgeable and so so sweet. I came to her just a month before my wedding after a last minute dress change and she was able to complete the alterations so quickly. Her work is so detailed, she tweaked things I never knew could help so much with the fit of the dress. Above all else she is incredibly kind and pours her heart into every client!

    A Wonderful Experience

    I highly recommend that you see Chelsea is you're in need of wedding dress alterations! She goes above and beyond to ensure you feel beautiful and comfortable in your dress and will make you laugh each time you see her. She turned my bargain sample dress that was a little too snug into a properly-fitted and comfortable dream dress. She is very responsive and ready to answer any questions you may have. Go see her, you will not be disappointed!

    I had a very large sample size wedding dress and
    Chelsea was able to make it fit perfectly. She exceeded every expectation and I was able to feel confident in my dress.

    What a dream!!

    Working with Chelsea was so special. She was creative and kind. She worked with me on what I wanted for my dress. She completely gutted it and reconstructed it in the best way possible. Being only a few months past having a baby when the process started I was very nervous, however, she took her time and had so much grace with me! I would choose her in a heartbeat for any other special event!!! Thank you Chelsea for your kindness, hard work and my special dress xx

    Amazing Work!

    Chelsea is amazing! I have had her alter two dresses for me, to include my wedding dress and I couldn't have asked for better services! My wedding dress had five layers and needed a bustle, Chelsea knocked it out in plenty of time for my wedding and even had a video for me to show my bridesmaids who helped me bustle my dress the day of! She is so good at what she does, and is incredibly easy to work with. I have suggested her to anyone look for alterations in the Yamhill County area. I look forward to working with her again!

    Chelsea is phenomenal

    Chelsea is so sweet and kind, and great at what she does! It took me forever to find my dress, which put me in between a rock and a hard place with my timeline. I was in a pinch to get alterations done before our elopement, and most vendors were in the busiest time as so many covid weddings were postponed. Chelsea was able to fit me in within my timeline and her work was high quality. I had two different fittings with her (one for measurements and one to ensure I liked the fit once altered). She was thoughtful and detailed, and even gave me a video of her showing me how to bustle my dress. She also gave me and my husband a sweet hand written card when I went to pick up my dress. She is full of thoughtful details and she is very talented at what she does. My dress had a very unique overlay, and you could not tell it was altered/cut at all. I would highly recommend Chelsea to other brides or anyone needing alterations.

    Great experience

    Chelsea was super fast to respond and got me in for appointments quickly. She was very flexible since I didn’t know what exact date I would get my dress in.

    Chelsea was so friendly and super knowledgeable and made me feel really comfortable the whole time.

    My dress requires quite a bit of alteration including completely rebuilding the sleeves and adding a corset but Chelsea did amazing and you couldn’t even tell there had been any changes.

    Amazing client services and high quality work!

    Chelsea at Rethread Alterations LLC was amazing! She did my wedding dress alterations and I could not be happier with the results. She did so many things such as install a three point bustle, hemming, adjusted the bust size of the dress, added beautiful off the shoulder sleeves, and much more. All the work she did was very high quality and throughout the entire process, Chelsea was very kind, professional, and fun to work with! She always made sure I was happy before any changes were made and triple checked everything I wanted. I had zero problems with communication or with conveying what I wanted. She is an amazing person and seamstress! 10/10!!

    Amazing seamstress in Newberg!

    I'm grateful to have been referred to Chelsea, who is absolutely the sweetest! On top of being positively lovely, she has a magical gift of doing alterations quickly and perfectly. I had a few different wedding outfits that she helped nip and tuck, all of them worked out so well! Grateful to have an awesome seamstress nearby!

    Sew Magical!

    Chelsea was so fun and easy to work with! I am a super indecisive person and she literally made my dream come true, without me even knowing what it was before walking into my first appointment. She worked some serious magic on my wedding dress, adding sleeves and removing quite a bit of length (I'm only 5'2"), as well as creating a beautiful bustle.
    I received many compliments on my dress, with many people saying (it is SO you!) I would highly recommend Chelsea to any Brides-to-be, and anyone looking for ANY alteration work.

    Chelsea was so sweet and worked really great around my short notice. My dress fit perfectly and was so easy to wear all day thanks to her.

    I would recommend Chelsea to anyone that needs wedding dress alterations or any alterations for that matter. She puts her heart into what she does and is one of the kindest souls. Her pricing is great! I would wear my wedding dress everyday if I could.

    I used Chelsea to alter my wedding and reception dress. From the first time I met her to the last appointment, she was so easy and fun to work with. Her flexibility, expertise and positive attitude made the process seamless. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her for future alterations!!

    Chelsea is awesome!

    Chelsea at ReThread Alterations was so much fun to work with! I had a few major alterations done to my dress, and she took on the challenge and was willing to do whatever it took to make my dress just right. She even made me a custom veil to go with my dress and had things done on time. She communicated great via email and made getting my dress altered the least of my worries!

    A Perfect Alteration

    Retread Alterations did an incredible job of making my wedding dress fit me perfectly! It was done quickly and on time, and delicate work on the train and back of my dress was done skillfully. Would highly recommend for alterations for any occasion.
