Price List Estimates

(for raw denim repair)

This list is an ESTIMATE of prices per repair/alteration. Prices are subject to change depending on the extent of the damage, repair, or alteration needed. If you have questions about the repair you can email me at melissa@quidprosew.com, or bring it in for a consolation.

 Sashiko/Boro

This repair will require a consultation to talk about what you want your hand stitched slow repair to look like. This repair starts at $40/hr. If you would like this type of repair on stretch denim or heavy weight denim (anything 18oz and up), this repair starts at $50/hr.

I can do this type of repair on other non denim garments as well. Price may vary depending on size/fabric/and type of hand stitch repair you are wanting to do.

Don’t Forget: Wash Your Jeans!

Please make sure to wash your denim in soap and water before bringing them in for repair. This is for my safety as well as the longevity of your jeans.
