I am HORRIFIED that she charged a friend of the family $100 for a 1 point American Bustle and bust pad. Four years ago I operated an Alterations business in Longview, I know the market. I now own an alterations business in California, where I am able to charge much more than I did in Longview and I would never charge this much even in California. I feel that ML is taking advantage of the fact that without my services in Longview there may not be another seamstress in the area willing to do a bustle. My suggestion, drive to Tyler, find someone who is not taking advantage of her clients naivety. To add insult to injury, she used tacky little bows to cover up the bustle points instead of investing in some nice scrap lace which would have looked much nicerMindy Hartman

Excellent work. A little pricey, but if the garment is important to you, she will do an excellent job.
