"I love Juli Hunter & her team's work and friendly service. They always manage to repair or alter my clothing, giving it another season to be worn. No job is too small for them. They also sell unique and beautifully handmade clothing. Highly recommended."

​I recently bought a pair of floral Juli Hunter dungarees from The Department of Curiosities and Fine Things in Napier -- and I love them! I have had so many compliments and they are so comfortable. I love the draw string at the back that allows you to wear them tighter or looser. I ended up going on the website and buying another pair because I love them so much. Thank you!

​"I recently went to Juli's Upcycle Sewing Class and thoroughly enjoyed it. Juli is a very kind and patient teacher and is passionate about helping you make your idea work. I highly recommend her classes and look forward to going along to more in the future."

​"Juli is lovely to work with. I have attended her sewing club and have been able to complete some projects with her including a dress that's taken 5 years to complete!"

"I joined one of Juli’s sewing classes at her studio to make a pair of trousers. I know the basics of sewing and sewing machines and this class was suitable for someone with this level of experience upwards. I was impressed by the warm welcome and friendly vibe of the studio. We were a smallish but like-minded group who spent a fun and productive threeish hours making finished and wearable clothing from the variety of fabrics offered to us. Juli was amazing - all around the studio, helping, advising, solving everyone’s problems and keeping us all on track. We all went home happy after a quick ‘catwalk’ of our finished trousers. A really enjoyable and useful afternoon which has sent me back to my sewing machine with renewed enthusiasm!"

"Always a pleasure, Juli and the team are professional and take the hassle out of everything to do with clothing alternations. Thoroughly recommended."
