Another Seamstress Post

I need a seamstress to do all my BMs hemming and "taking in". Can you please give me a very inexpensive recommendation? The dresses were kind of pricey and I think my girls are not going to like having to spend a lot on all the alterations required per my past post regarding the dress shop that provided these dresses to us. Also, I need to get all 8 dresses done in less than 5 weeks. I'm totally stressing about this... :(

    Diana Adams is probably the lest expensive. She ranged from $30-$60 for my BMs (the $60 was pretty much a complete reconstruction on a dress 3 sizes too big).

    Best way to reach Diana is via email. But you have to stay on her. If you don't hear back, keep emailing (be a pest). Explain the ordering/sizing problems you girls have and the time crunch and hopefully she can squeeze you in!

    I also recommend Sheryl Kelm--thanks Kelly!! She is wonderful and relatively cheap like PP mentioned. My dress alteration was 60 and my sister (had to get a lot done) was only like 40.
