What to Expect
Reach Out
Fill out the contact form with a few details about your garment. I read every message myself and reply as soon as I can.
Free Consultation
We look at the garment together. I assess what needs to be done and give you an honest, itemized quote. No commitment required.
First Fitting
I pin and mark every adjustment directly on you, so we both see exactly what changes before a single seam is cut.
The Work
I complete your alterations with full attention. For complex bridal gowns this may involve multiple stages of careful work.
Bridal
Progress Check
For intricate bridal alterations, we do a mid-point fitting to verify fit and make fine adjustments before final touches.
Pickup
Your garment is finished, pressed, and ready. We do a final try-on together — we don't say goodbye until it's perfect.

I trained as a designer at IUP and spent a year as Lead Alterations Specialist at David’s Bridal. Now I work for myself, one client at a time, out of a studio in Pittsburgh. Every quote is itemized in writing before I cut a thread.
