    If you don't want to travel north, at the BABC event this last weekend, there was an alterations gal from Dupont there. I've got her card. Although I have not used her, she seemed on the ball and concientious. (sp) I can get her card and give you her information if you want. Let me know.

    Okay. Got the cards out of my vehicle... There were 2 south end gals at the BABC event. I talked to both and both walked through and offered tips, advice, etc. Elizabeth Parks- out of Tacoma- 253-759-5320 - TacomaAlterations.com. This is the gal I'm going to end up using. She has a background in design and when talking to her she offered great tips and was super knowledgeable when I questioned her. She suggested something for my dress that I didn't even think of and it made it POP! And I liked the way she explained the way she'd do it.  And she makes gowns from scratch. Cheryl's Alterations- out of Dupont- 360-359-2032 - CherylsAlterations.com and Cheryl@CherylsAlterations.com. She was just too far south for me so I didn't get into much conversation with with her. But she seemed really nice and competent too. She does not make gowns from scratch- just alterations.
