About the workshop

One shop, two generations,
the same cutting table.

ابا جی نے ۱۹۹۴ میں دکان کھولی — قینچی آج بھی وہی ہے۔

1994 — today

How we got here

Muhammad Sartaj opened a single-machine shop in Anarkali in 1994, stitching men's shalwar kameez for the shopkeepers around him. Everything since has been built on that table.

1994

One machine, one master

Sartaj sahib opens the shop and stitches menswear for the shopkeepers around him.

2004

A ladies master joins

Four machines on the floor and womenswear starts, with a separate fitting room.

2011

Second generation cuts

His son Usman takes over cutting, adds a children's table, and starts a measurement register for every customer — so a repeat order never needs a second fitting.

2019

First brand order

A Lahore label asks for fifty pieces of one design. That order became the production floor upstairs, which runs alongside the counter without slowing it down.

Today

Seven tailors, same scissors

The shears on the wall are the ones Sartaj sahib bought in 1994, and they still get used on wedding orders.

House rules

Four things we don't bend on.

These are the promises the counter staff are allowed to make without asking Usman first.

01

The date is the date

If we accept an order we give a delivery date and hold it. If our floor can't take it, we say no at the counter instead of delaying you later.

02

Your fabric is your fabric

Leftover cloth comes back with the garment. Every time, without asking.

03

Rate before scissors

Full stitching charge quoted and written on the slip before cutting begins. No additions at delivery.

04

Our mistake, our cost

If the fault is in our stitching or measurement, we fix it free — or replace the fabric if it can't be fixed.

Who touches your garment

Seven people, clearly divided.

CUTTING

Usman Sartaj

Master cutter, menswear and bridal. Second generation, cutting since 2011.

LADIES

Naseem Bibi

Ladies master. Bridal, saree blouse and fittings in the ladies room.

CHILDREN

Rashid Ali

Children's table and all uniform orders, single or bulk.

FINISHING

Finishing team

Four hands on kaj, button, overlock and press. Nothing leaves unpressed.

Reasons customers stay

What a 31-year-old shop can do that a new one can't.

Records

Your measurements kept

Reorder by phone from anywhere. We already know your file.

Range

One shop, whole family

Father's suit, mother's kameez, children's uniforms — one visit, one bill.

Capacity

Retail and bulk together

A production floor upstairs, so a brand order never eats your delivery date.

Ready when you are

Bring the fabric. We'll do the rest.
