Ayana G is amazing! We used her last year to alter my daughter's prom dress. My daughter decided she wanted to design her own dress this year. All, I can say is Ayana brought her ideas to life! She is very accommodating. I definitely recommend her. Thanks Ayana!

I'm so happy that I found Ayana on Thumbtack! Before I connected with her, I had been looking for a professional seamstress for months. However, after I found Ayana on Thumbtack, we messaged and talked. Then, she scheduled an appointment for us to meet and for me to bring the 8 items that needed to be altered. On our first visit, Ayana was punctual, professional, and knowledgeable in her craft. Her demeanor was also very warm. During our visit, my husband and I explained what we needed done to my 6 pairs of pants, my 2 dress blouses and my husband's 2 coats (one dress overcoat and one leather casual coat and on the day of pickup, Ayana delivered excellent results! We have additional items that we will be taking to her to alter soon, and she has officially been crowned our family seamstress. Lastly, I have decided not to upload any pics because I did not take any pre-alteration pics of our items. Therefore, an after alterations image would not prove helpful. Just know that her work is superb and her finished product will put a smile on your face.
Thanks, Ayana!

Ayanna did an amazing job altering several pieces for me including pants, dresses and jumpsuits. She was very communicative and completed the alterations in a timely manner. Ayanna will definitely be my go-to for any alteration needs in the future.

Ayana did alterations to my wedding dress and it turned out great. The dress was too big for me when I bought it and needed to be altered quite a bit to fit me right. It also was hard to alter because of the material but Ayana made it possible. She was very communicative throughout the whole process and very professional. I felt comfortable to tell her if I needed or wanted anything else done to the dress or if it still wasn’t fitting quite right and she would get to it right away. I’m beyond happy with the end result of my dress. Will definitely recommend to any friends or family.

Last week, I was extremely stressed as my daughter's prom dress arrived and it didn't fit!!! With only 5 days until her prom, I had to research in order to find a seamstress to fix my baby's dress. To be honest, I didn't have much faith but to my surprise, I received an immediate response from Ayana. Not only did she message me immediately, she also told me to bring the dress and my daughter to her so that she could do the necessary alterations. I must say that Ayana delivered everything and more. She met with us throughout the week and put time and effort into making sure that my baby's dress fit for her prom! Ayana worked her magic and skill. My baby looked like Cinderella for her prom. If you are looking for someone who can handle emergency alteration needs please contact Ayana and she will fulfill all of your requests! I have recommended her to my friends and family, and will definitely utilize her services again!
