Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, I do not have the machine nor the expertise that is required for embroidery. I can add on patches or appliques, but nothing custom. If you are local please contact DD Creations in Huntley for your embroidery needs.

  • I work out of my home in Pingree Grove, IL. When you book an appointment you will receive the address.

  • You may park on the driveway or street. Please ring the bell at your appointment time. I take care of my appointments in my front room and customers may use my entry way bathroom to change.

  • Every project is different and turnaround greatly varies by the time of year and how many orders I currently have. Some items may be done as soon as the next day and others could take 2-3 weeks. Although I generally have all items done within 2 weeks. I can always accommodate an earlier pick up date, just let me know when the item is needed upfront so I can better plan for your service. * Items needed in less than 2 days may be subject to a slight upcharge.

  • Unofficially, I do charge less for multiples of the same type of item. Such as 3 pairs of jeans needing to be hemmed may be $8-10, as opposed to the standard $10-12.

    I also offer a $10 off any service when you purchase a book (any format) from my best friend, Author, Tara N Gabrys. She has several books available in formats as low as $7 (which means you actually save money!) You can learn more about her books on her website Here. I have paperback copies of each book available for purchase but if you choose to purchase an audiobook or kindle version just show me proof of purchase to get your discount.

  • Small holes, tears and simple mending are generally accepted on any item, I am able hand sew when I can. Large coats can be difficult to get in my machine and therefore I do not alter them. I may be able to change a zipper on a slim coat, but general altering will need to be confirmed before booking.

  • Most likely no, I no longer make things like clothing and bags from fabric for my customers. I do occasionally make and sell homemade items though.

    At this time, I only alter premade items, but you can always reach out to confirm

    Ask me anything.
