Your Personal Tailor

Meet Annette, the heart and soul of our business. As the owner and master seamstress, she personally handles all alterations with precision and dedication.

Annette's love for fabrics and sewing began at an early age, leading her to attend a prestigious sewing school to master the art of dressmaking. After honing her skills and graduating, she embarked on an entrepreneurial journey by opening a combination alteration shop and dry-cleaning business. Over the years, Annette realized that her true passion lay in the hands-on work of sewing, rather than managing a large enterprise.

Driven by her passion, Annette decided to focus on what she loved most: working with fabrics and witnessing the transformation of garments as they fit their wearers beautifully. Today, she is thrilled to dedicate her time to the art of sewing, using her exceptional skills to bring her clients' visions to life.

Annette's remarkable journey and commitment to her craft ensure that when you trust her with your garments, you are not only receiving impeccable alterations but also becoming a part of her inspiring story. Choose Annette for all your sewing needs, and experience the difference that passion and expertise can make.

Some History
Our journey began in 1999

(the sewing machine is slightly older)

With four decades of experience in dressmaking and sewing, honed since my graduation from a tailoring and design school, I took the bold step to establish my own alteration shop in 1999. The core of my passion - my love for fabrics, sewing, and serving people - has remained as fervent as it was forty years ago.

Throughout the years, my delight has always been in meeting the unique needs of each customer through careful, personalized alterations. My commitment to excellence is evident in every stitch I sew and every garment I alter.

The pleasure of helping my customers and the satisfaction that comes from a job well done have kept my passion alive. Through this enduring love for my craft, I strive to bring the best in everything I do, ensuring that your garments are treated with the utmost care and professionalism.

Join us on this beautiful journey, where passion meets precision, and experience the warmth and quality of service that has been our trademark since 1999.

Contact Annette

Hello, my wonderful friends. I won’t use my right arm and wrist until June as my right arm is in a cast, and both eyes are recovering slowly from Glaucoma eye surgery in March. In the meantime, please feel free to ask any questions and keep in touch. I'll return soon!
