How many tools does a tailor use????
Too many! The right tool makes light work. Although a lot can be done with a little.

Alterations is about making you feel and look your best. This client had not worn these pants ever, as they sat in her closet for 3 years waiting to meet someone who could make them fit just right. During her fitting we figured out what needed to be corrected... the waist band was too high and it was too loose in the hip. I gotchu girl! And it needed to be completed for a trip in a couple days! Viola! Success!
