seamstress needed to work on a regimental coat
« on: December 14, 2016, 04:37:12 PM »
I have a particular pickle of a problem, which has me in a tough spot. I have an extremely well made regimental coat that must change the color facing trim for unit match. The coat , as told to me, is well designed an stitched extensively, an now, with the need to change the facing color trim, is so much extra work, pulling the coat apart an working around the button holes (which would be weakened, so I was told) for the new trim color to be stitched, has made a seamstress for help, tough to find. I don't expect to have this involved work done quickly, as it is tedious  , so I was told. I don't expect a seamstress to do this for a small fee, an would be willing to pay the price to have this service done, an done well!............Please is there anybody out there who could help me with this headache....................sonny

Sonny, I simply commissioned a talented local seamstress to make my Westcoat and Jacket.  She made it fit perfectly and charged me only $800.   I bought the material separately.

Art is not an object.  It is the excitement inspired by the object.

Sonny, my mother is one of the best seamstresses I know.  Send me a phone number and I'll have her reach out to you.
If it was easy, everyone would do it.
