ANNOUNCEMENTS

Our turn-around time is currently eleven weeks. 

We have been working our butts off to shorten our lead time, however, the need for mending and alterations is in high demand.   In the years since Covid and quarantine, our county has seen the closures of several alterations shops, including many home-sewing businesses. This has increased the workload for those of us left in business.

Despite limiting what we take in right now, despite working seven days a week, and despite hiring several people in the last few months, it is challenging to keep up with all the proms, weddings, graduations, etc.

Thank you for your understanding and your continued support.
