"Their attention to detail is next-level, and you can tell they really care about getting everything just right. I’m beyond excited to wear my suit in the next few days. It fits so well I didn’t even want to take it off when I picked it up!"

"Thread the needle is amazing for getting a suit. They did an amazing job on my doubled breasted custom suit. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for custom tailoring for wedding or special occasions. I will be returning for sure! Thank you to the team at Thread the Needle!"

I found Thread the Needle after searching online for some made-to-measure tailors in the KC area. This was my first experience getting a made-to-measure full suit + shirt so it was a bit stressful. Fortunately, Joseph was super helpful throughout the whole process and answered every question I had (of which there were definitely many). Very happy with how it all came out.

I had a tremendous experience using Thread the Needle for my wedding. Yelena and Joseph created a custom tuxedo for me and also gave me an incredible deal on a sports coat for the rehearsal dinner. They're super responsive and were always willing to answer my questions. I'm extremely happy with my experience and would highly recommend them.

How It Works

Our Process

1. Book a consultation.

We help you choose the fabrics, materials, and accessories that will best suit your needs. If you have a design in mind, please bring photos/notes with you!

2. Get measured.

We will take a series of body measurements to ensure your custom suit fits perfectly. Please avoid wearing loose or thick clothing. A simple t-shirt or form-fitting clothing is preferred.

3. Completion.

Receive your handcrafted masterpiece in 2-4 weeks. Production times may vary depending on specifications and season.

4. Adjustments.

We may ask you to come in to perform several fittings in order to make small adjustments throughout the process. Once your suit is finished, it will fit perfectly based on your specifications.

Our Story

The Family Behind Thread the Needle

Meet Yelena Blond

Yelena moved to the U.S. from Ukraine in 1994, and she brought with her a unique skill that made her new U.S. friends take notice: Sewing with a personal touch.

As the former owner of Rydell’s Tailoring, Yelena has over 30 years of experience.  Not only is she a master at putting together the perfect look for her clients, but she's also an expert at making each one of her customers feel at home. When you visit Thread the Needle, you will come in a stranger, and leave as a well-dressed friend.

Meet Joseph Blond

Born into a family of tailors, Joseph has been around sewing all his life. Growing up, he began his journey by sewing together small coin pouches and other novelties as a kid. His hobby grew into a passion for tailoring excellence as he apprenticed in his family’s tailor shop and mastered the art of sewing. 

Joseph believes that every fabric sets a tone and every stitch writes a story, so he puts precision and perfection into his craft.
