** ANNIVERSARY ANNOUNCEMENT **

2 years ago today was the start of the current chapter for Altered To Suit in the beautiful Shackleton Hall.
And still the workload continues to grow with first half of this year being the busiest yet.
I’m grateful for the continued support of returning and new customers alike.

Long may we continue to sew 🧵 🪡 ❤️
