    Anyone know of a good sewing shop in Tallaght or somewhere near by? I'd rather not have to go into town but if anyone has good recommendations for a place there then I'd probably give it a shot. Got a jacket that cost around 100, the buttons were sewn in very weakly so naturally they're all either hanging off or have already fallen off. I attempted to sew them back on myself but I don't want to try it again. The buttons go diagonally in line with the style of the coat and I don't want to risk messing it up, so if anyone has any recommendations for a sewing shop that could help I'd be really grateful.

    It's not in Tallaght but Studio 54 in Sandyford is very good. They're costume/dressmakers and I've used them for alterations and have been very happy. You could try your local dry cleaner as well. They might do alterations or be able to tell you of someone local.

    The dry cleaners on the bottom level in the square has closed down, they did do alterations. I've been told of a place near Permanent TSB in Tallaght village that does alterations, I'll post back on how I get on.

    No luck, unfortunately. I have passed by the place in the village but haven't heard any recommendations for it so don't really want to risk it until I know. Let me know how it goes.
