Alterations for weddings, proms, formals, officewear, and everyday clothing.
Services & Policies
"BEFORE": Customer had washed a jacket, causing the sleeve lining to shrink by 3 inches, making the wool jacket sleeve "bunch up".
"AFTER": I removed stitching where lining was attached to sleeve, and cut pieces of new lining fabric to attach to sleeve lining, making it the same length as it was originally, thus allowing the sleeve to hang and look normal once again!
Alterations and repairs for fabric garments. A few examples:
Gals and Guys: Office clothes, casual wear, dressy wear, formal wear, wedding and bridesmaid dresses, prom dresses!
Special Projects: Have a closet full of nice clothes that you never wear? Bring them on in to the shop and together we can decide if some modifications can make them wearable.
Yes, I can convert a zip-up dress to a lace-up corset-back dress!
Do you have a basketful of "miscellaneous repairs" that you just don't have time to get to? Bring it in! I have a huge supply of buttons, hooks & eyes, snaps, etc.
