    Had curtains altered. Gal did a great job and was ready as promised. Nice doing business with this…read moreshop

    I hope people don't make the mistake I did by not reading her reviews first. Just awful. Opening…read moretimes are wrong online, she opens the store several minutes late. I brought in two pairs of pants to be hemmed and one pair of jeans that only needed one button. She tried to charge me $70. When I paused and took a second to add up in my mind how two hems and one button could be that much, she says, "yes, three pairs to hem and one button that's $70." I said no, only two hems and on button. Did you do three hems? She says she needs to find her glasses and then corrects herself. Apparently she can't read her own handwriting. Now it's $50....for two hems and a button. I said "ok I'm here and I did not check the prices ahead of time, here's my card." To which she says, "no cards." I ask if there is a sign posted anywhere that says cash only. She walks over to an open interior door and closes it. On the back of the door is her hand written sign saying "cash. check. venmo". Luckily I had cash on me or I'd have been sol. So I'm visibly taken aback by the unprofessionalisms and I've paid cash, standing silently for change. While getting change she mentions that "in ten years you're the only person to complain about prices." Standing silently is not complaining. Anyways I tell her that it's the combination of all the factors. She just got huffy and told me to not come back then. Oh nooo, I can't go back?

    Absolutely terrible experience! We were referred to this alteration place by another tailor who was…read morebooked up due to prom season. The women here are kind, but that's about the only good thing I can say. I honestly don't know if they're inexperienced or just have never worked with a Black woman's curves before, but not one, not two, but three of my dresses were completely botched. I also had a top altered and it came back lopsided. After the first round of alterations, the owner tried to gaslight me, saying they had only adjusted the strap for my burgundy dress (which was never the main issue). I initially asked for the sides to be taken in because the bust area was too big, but somehow, that got lost in translation. So I paid AGAIN, for all to be fixed and what I got back was even worse. Everything felt rushed, uneven, and downright sloppy. I bawled my eyes out because these dresses were meant for my birthday trip. The white dress? It was the most horrendous one, imagine the outline of Sarah Baartman on a modern-day garment. That's how distorted the shape was. Even after a third attempt, the seams were still crooked and the dress was unwearable. I'm now left dressless for my trip and out of money. If I could give this place zero stars, I would.

The wedding dress came out perfect and the bustle stayed in place all night long. I would recommend her for any alterations, especially for important occasions.

    Buyer Beware: Louise did only a fair-to-middling job for me. Upon completion, she requested payment…read morebefore I had seen the work up close and when I told her as much she said she was on her way out and had somewhere she had to be but, not to worry, if anything was wrong, she would make it right. Trusting her friendly manner and wishing to accommodate her busy schedule, I left and later found several errors in her sewing. When I asked her if she would please fix them, her formerly-friendly tone quickly went from warm to brittle and unpleasant. She did not stand by her work and I was out $$. It was frustrating and I felt foolish for not insisting on checking the items over before cash was exchanged. (Lesson learned!) My advice: Use her only if you must (ie: if no one else is available) and be sure to thoroughly check her work before you pay her.

    This place seems to be a well run one woman show. I purchased a comforting blanket for my dog. He…read moreloved it only thing was the zipper was broke when I received it. It took for ever to get I think it came pony express. Any who it was ruined. So I reached out to Louise who is still sewing she said drop it off when I can so I did. I kid you not she called me 5 minutes after I dropped it and asked if I would like Velcro because she thought the zipper was a bad design for this blanket. I said sure why not. 45 minutes later she calls me back all set you can come get it. The price was half of what I thought it might of been (BONUS).I can't think of better service than this. And the Velcro works great
