First
e-mail me a sketch, pattern picture or link to a web site on which the garment is located.

Q |
How
long does it take to get a finished garment |
|
|
|
A |
It depends
a lot on whether it is a simple blouse or skirt or a wedding dress. Usually simple things
take about two- three weeks allow time for shipping and bridal allow at least 8-10 weeks.
I like to have ample time on bridal and formal wear. |

Q |
What
if I need something in a rush? |
|
|
|
Q |
This can be
done, as long as it is a reasonable request, depending again what it is that you need to
have made. |
|

|
|
Q |
What
if the garment you make me doesn't fit exactly? |
|
|
|
A |
There is a
chance that the garment may need minor adjustments.
This is why it is important to have someone take very good measurements for you If
alterations are necessary an alterations person in your own area can do this for a small
fee.
The price I quote internet clients is 15% lower than what I charge clients in my area who
come in person. |

Q |
Do
you do children's' or
men's clothes? |
|
|
|
A |
Yes, I do them occasionally.
But the price quote still depends on the details of the style. |

|
|
Q |
Do you do embroidery, beading, or crafts?
|
|
|
|
A |
Yes, it is time consuming but I can factor it into the garment, especially for beading.

|
Q |
Can I get something made if I am on a tight budget? |
|
|
|
A |
Not really. Custom made things take time.
If you're on a tight budget, buying an off-the-rack dress
would be the way to go. |
