About
I try to create the best fit in clothing designs and alterations for my clients, including suggesting bra and undergarment fittings within the garment, having been in business for over 30 years. All pricing is done on an individual basis, dependent on fabric and style of the garment.

This session with Ms. Warr was a smart investment that will save me in many thousands of returns! I learned the right stitches, cutting and hemming techniques and worked through a basic design (plus more tips and tidbits that only come from years of sewing.)

I met with Mrs. Matherene, our consultation went great! I loved that she had the dress I wanted already sketched out for me. She was very welcoming and knowledgeable. She is very detailed and I love that. I am definitely looking forward to working with her again for some of my upcoming events.

Matherene was very kind. She got me in quick and had my Bridesmaid's dress hemmed within a week. Will be going back for future work. Thanks!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices are all different, since most of the projects I've been commissioned to do are unique.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I try to work with the individual needs, fabric and notion costs, time I'm given to complete the project, and get a deposit to cover the material costs. I need a minimum of 1 fitting, more with formalwear, and can provide a pattern for new designs at additional cost.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles
Moore College of Art in Philadelphia, PA
