JoAnne was great! A rush job to have some pants hemmed before a trip. JoAnne turned them around quickly and the pants look great!

JoAnne is a very encouraging instructor and wants you to get the learning experience you deserve! JoAnne has a great background in fashion design and leather work and uses her experience to give you the skills and advice to reach your goals you set up with her. She is the kind of instructor that is passionate about teaching what she loves. I wish there were more fashion design instructors like her who ACTUALLY really love to teach!

Jo Anne was a savior! She did the hem for a faux leather dress and it turned out great!! Very punctual and great service! 100% recommend. She even offered ideas to use the extra material she cut of when working on the hem. Adding before and after pictures (red dress)

JoAnne is a professional in all ways! Her work is outstanding and I couldn't be happier with the purse she made for me. She also has a great customer service attitude. Throughout the project, she kept me informed, sending me pictures of the work in progress, soliciting my input, wanting to work to fill my needs. Lastly, I want to say that she is extremely creative and talented in her field. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and I plan on using her services in the future.
