I am from Peru; my mom is a dress maker. Even though she doesn’t do that any more, she did it for many years. So I learned with her. Then, when I finished my high school, I went to school for accounting. And in my second year at university, I decided to take classes for design.
I learned with my mom when I was maybe 10 years old, really doing embroidery for her customers. So I would say maybe 30 years.
I did part time for many years, and since 2012, I set up as a full-time business. The first business is sewing, alterations, dress making, custom-made. The new business is expanding to a bridal boutique. So we have the two businesses at the same location.
I like both. I like to be creative, and I also am very into the sewing. Even though I went to the school and learned all kinds of stuff like suits for men, and pants, not only for women, I decided to keep it to gowns. I like to do more embroidery and little details and this and that. That’s why the bridal is part of my dream, because there’s a lot of details on it. You have to have a lot of patience to do this, and I think I do. And just to see my clients happy, even for a hemming, for what I do for them, that is my goal.
I am a dress maker. I customize dresses, I take measurements, I do my own patterns, I create the patterns, and then I cut the material, from scratch.
For any garment, the customer comes in and they give me an idea of what they want, and we create something for that specific person, together. I take her ideas, I give my advice, and depending on their body shape and the type of gown or garment they need, we create for them. And then taking the measurements from the person and creating the pattern just for her. And then cutting the material and sewing together, there are a couple fittings before the final fitting.
I believe that the alterations part of the gown for the bride is the main thing for them. They go and buy the dress, but the dress when it comes to them, it doesn’t fit them the right way. So that’s why alterations have a lot of importance for them. So to see them crying at the final fitting, that is my goal. Because that is when they see themselves with the dress, when they see themselves as a bride, when the dress fits well. So that’s why I think it was my goal to open this business and have the full service, because they’ve spent time and money, and they’ve spent a lot. So why not give it to them in one place?

Amilynn AdamsJune 8, 2024Olga is awesome. Her alterations on my dress took it from “I love this dress” to “I’m head over heels in love with this dress.” Not much else I can say other than she’s AH-mazing.Teresa WaxMay 16, 2024My dress alterations turned out beautifully and the owner is super friendly!Marissa LoweryApril 25, 2024I go to Olga for all of my alterations especially for dresses. This last time I had to get a bridesmaid dress altered since I would be 6 months pregnant when I had to wear it. She did such a great job on all the alterations with my dress. I highly recommend her.Kevin JohnsonJanuary 15, 2024I've been going to Olga over the last several years and between my softball pants and dress pants,they always come out nice. She is personable and friendly, and gets things done in a timely manner. I highly recommend Olga and My Sewing Studio!Chris AlexanderNovember 29, 2023The zipper on my 15+ YO Carhartt jacket broke at the trolley and it meant too much to me to replace. I mean, anyone who has an old Carhartt knows it takes a good 10 years to get properly broken in, am I right? All jokes aside, I called over to the studio, dropped the jacket off at 9:00 AM and she had it ready for me by 1:00 PM. Unbelievable! Incredible customer service, friendly, helpful, and she used top notch heavy duty replacement parts with same day service at a reasonable price. I mean what more can you ask for? I will absolutely be coming back with any tailoring needs I have in the future. THANK YOU!!!Brittany ThompsonOctober 20, 2023Olga did an AMAZING job on my wedding dress! It was a size or two too big, very long, with no bustle or padding to start. She transformed it into the most magnificent dress that fit me perfectly on the day. She had to do so much work with the lace and fine material and she managed to do so as if the dress had been perfect from the start. I would highly recommend taking your business to her because you will be thrilled with the results!Theresa FosterMarch 15, 2023Olga is fantastic! I had bridemaid dress alterations done (at the waist and hemmed) and she did a wonderful job. She is flexible, accommodating, and makes sure her customer is 100% satisfied. Great experience and will use again.Lauren CarranoJune 15, 2022Olga was a life saver! I needed a last minute alteration on my bridesmaids dress and she was so kind and understanding. She fit me in, got the alteration done, and did an amazing job!!
