Below is a list of prices for alterations. These prices are subject to change depending on how difficult/easy a project is, how soon a client needs a project finished, as well as if extra materials are needed (ex. new zippers). These factors may add/or take away from the final cost.
But the below figures are a good baseline to keep in mind. I like to get an alterations project at minimum of a week and a half
to two weeks before a client needs it finished (longer if it's consultant work like making a dress from scratch).
When it comes to consultant work (ex. sewing a dress from scratch) prices will depend on project and whether materials needed are
provided by me or the client. I work with my clients to come up with a price which will include fitting, labor, any materials
bought plus travel and any other extra expenses.
I accept cash and check payments but prefer cash.
I do have the right to refuse a project.
Here are my prices
