Golden Needle Alteration & Tailoring

Olga’s work is unbelievable! She is truly a magician! If there are any alterations you need done she is the person to see! She took my daughter’s wedding dress apart and made it three sizes smaller. It fit like a glove and she looked amazing in it.
She reduced the sizes on several men’s sports coats as well, and has done numerous other equally fabulous alterations for my family.
We are thrilled with the work that is done at The Golden Needle and you will be, too!

I brought my wedding dress here to be altered by Olga. She is the warmest woman and is incredibly gifted at what she does! She was very accommodating during my three appointments. I noticed that everyone who walks in, she seems to have a great relationship with (hugs them, knows them by name, asks how the event went) and everyone becomes a returning customer after his/​her first alteration! I gave her a huge hug after she finished my dress, which had 2 layers of lace and 1 silk fabric– 3 layers total. I was very impressed by the precision with creating a hook in the back to hook my dress train after my ceremony for more mobility. I will absolutely be a returning customer. I’m so pleased with my wedding dress!!! Beautiful work.

If I could give this place no stars I would. I brought my bridesmaid dress here to be altered. The woman barely took the time to push the pins through my dress. But I thought nothing of it. When I went to pick up my dress and tried it on the top was huge and the hem of my dress was a mess. She said she could fix it no problem and said come back in one week. I came back and the dress was never done. She apologized and promised me over and over that the dress would be done that day. I came back the next day to give them more time. The woman didn’t even remember who I was an on top of it the dress was never done again! At this point the wedding was in one week. I said to her I need this dress done tomorrow which she replied sorry we are closed I can get it to you by Tuesday. She apologized but offered no better solution for me. I ended up taking my UNFINISHED dress with me because at this point I had lost faith. I paid 85 dollars to have her trash my dress. When I called upset that I now had to go somewhere else to pay and have them fix their mistake she said she didn’t see the problem and that the dress was the problem not her! She finally agreed to pay me back my money. When I went in to pick it up she refused to refund me my total amount of 85 dollars that I had proof of payment in a receipt that they wrote. She only would pay me 35 bucks!!! These woman are running a shoddy unprofessional business that I wouldn’t send my worst enemy to. Good luck to anyone who brings their clothes there. One more thing. I understand that mistakes happen and things slip through the cracks. But it’s how they handled this situation that left the bad taste in my mouth and a unfinished dress in my hands. If they simply refunded my money. This review would never have happened.

Absolutely WONDERFUL. Went in on a Tuesday morning, met with Olga to have a leather jacket that my parents had brought home from Italy altered. I was worried because the jacket was so special but at least ¾ sizes too large. Olga was wonderful, she put my mind at ease with her no fuss, no big deal way about her (and the cost was minimal). The following Tuesday I picked up a beautifully altered jacket, it fits perfectly and I now can wear my gift!!!

I’ve had 5 items hemmed or taken in at Olga’s, and so far, I’m DELIGHTED. I’ve gone to two other places in the Hyannis area (both had same day service) and had horrible results (ruined a brand new skirt I had bought from Puritan’s). I’m quite particular about my alterations… I want finished seams and straight stitching! Olga has been wonderful… the only reason I didn’t give her 5 stars is because she hasn’t done a complicated alteration for me. When she does, and I approve, I’ll increase it to a 5 star.

Olga and her team are fabulous. They are careful and professional and always exceed our family’s highest expectations. We are longtime repeat customers. They are superb seamstresses.

I have had alterations done twice in the past year. The work was exceptionally good, fairly priced and ready as promised. I have recommended them to friends. It’s a professionally run business with a welcoming atmosphere.

This place is claiming to be Alberico’s Alterations stating that they moved from Mashpee to this new location in Marstons Mills. They have the same phone number as Alberico’s. They are giving Alberico’s a bad name by doing TERRIBLE work and claiming to be the former Alberico’s located in Mashpee!
I picked up 3 shirts and 2 pairs of pants today that were hemmed. The job was very unprofessional. In fact, the work was something I could have done myself. How can they call themselves a professional business and charge money for such terrible work?
Two of the shirts look good. One shirt is about ½ shorter than requested — I had asked that all shirts be hemmed to 24 from the top of the front collar. The red shirt was a little over 23 .
Both pants look terrible and are NOT what I asked for and showed them. I asked that they be hemmed to the thick hem already on the back of each leg and just carried around. They were hemmed about an inch below this and the hem doesn t match the existing hem.
The tan pants: each leg has different color thread and stitching style. The green pants: one leg is longer than the other one. Both pants are not hemmed to where I indicated.
When people bring their clothes for professional alterations they want it to look professional, like that s the way the pants were originally made. This looks like a child’s practice job. GO ELSEWHERE!

Olga is AMAZING!!! I recently got married on the Cape and live in Los Angeles… I bought my dress at Priscillas of Boston right before they went out of business… so… needless to say, I was stuck looking for a reputable and trustworthy seamstress for all my alterations that was on Cape Cod and could hang on to my dress for me. I had heard through word of mouth about Olga and figured I would give it a try… From the moment I put on that dress and she went around and did her thing, I felt 100% confident in her. She put all my worries at ease and was so accommodating for fittings (based on when I would be in town from L. A) Each time I was just more amazed with her work! She is absolutely a perfectionist in her work, which is the highest quality and her prices are very reasonable. My dress fit like a glove and I couldn’t have been more pleased with her work — My mother also got her dress done there and that was also done perfectly!
