Anyway, I found the service overpriced, took a long time, and the lady working the job didn't seem very interested in having a new customer. She was kind of rude, made it seem like she didn't have much time to serve me, kind of "barked orders" at me. I've never been to an alterations person before and didn't know what to expect, so I was slow and inexperienced, she probably sensed that, but still "barked" at me and seemed to really be inconvenienced by me and my request for service. The job was OK, but when I picked it up, she didn't ask me if I was satisfied or anything, just held out her hand for pay. It was a lot more costly than I had imagined, and since she only accepted cash or a check, I had to leave my item, go home and get more money, then pick up later. I was so put off by her that I almost left the item there and thought, "you can have my pants!" I did go pick up later, but I don't even want to wear the pants because they remind me of her! I'll not go back, for sure.

I found one that fit me perfectly (thanks to Karen at Dillards in the Acadiana Mall!), but the sleeves were too long. I remembered this place -- Ann's Alterations -- from getting my wedding and reception dresses fitted TWELVE YEARS AGO! I stopped in on the off chance that the seamstress could work a miracle and shorten my jacket sleeves for me within just a few hours time. She was the SWEETEST business owner I have ever encountered. She said that she would stay late to make sure she got my jacket fixed for me in time for my interview and would call me that afternoon when she was done. So, after dropping off the jacket after 1:00pm, I received a call before 4:30pm that my jacket was ready! And her work was IMPECCABLE!! I highly recommend this business to anyone needing alterations completed!

Edna's Alterations

My daughter needed her homecoming dress taken in on the sides and a hem.

She was pleasant and told me that it would not be a problem and that she would take care of it. We set up a time for the next day, and we showed up. She welcomed us with open arms and had my daughter try on the dress and from there took her measurements and scheduled us to come back the next day for another fitting and to pick up the dress. She also had to adjust her heels and apply elastic to the back of the strap. I would highly recommend Ms. Edna, the next time you're looking to get your alterations done.

Anyways, I paid, and as I was walking out another one of his customer came in to pick up his jeans Mario said he was working on it rn, but had to stop because he was handling a customer(myself) well... according to other customer, his order was placed a week a ago... worried for my own suit, because i need the suit for a wedding, I asked for a refund. And that's when we got into a disagreement: he said he's going to charge me $20 dollars because I wasted his time... and so I replied, "you performed no services, why are you charging me money and not giving me a full refund?" "Because you're wasting my time." After 30 minutes he reluctantly says he'll ONLY take 10.... Anyways long story short. I got my money back after Mario wasted an hour of my time, because he didn't want to issue me a full refund, for a service he did not perform.

Currently, she's working on a custom linen suit set for me, transforming baggy pants into a tailored pencil skirt with a slit. Her attention to detail is outstanding; she takes the time to ensure everything is done right. I'm so grateful to have found her and can't wait to share the before-and-after photos of my suit project. If you're looking for a talented seamstress, look no further!
