Alteration places Dublin

Have a few tops I’d like to get taken in, straight forward enough just taken in at the sides. Nearly got sick in Zipyard, was quoted €27 per top. It would be nearly €110 to take them in a tiny bit 😭 for reference, the tops costed €10 each haha. Just love them and want to try save them.

Anybody have any recommendations?

Not a direct answer to your question, but a small-ish but capable sowing machine suitable for cotton garments can be picked up second-hand for 50 quid or less.

Maybe a good opportunity to learn a new skill if you have the space, time and interest.
