I had dinner with a good friend tonight who was my last hope. Okay, I guess I should back up a bit first...
I am a bridesmaid in a wedding in just about 5 weeks in Lexington, KY for one of my oldest friends. Last fall, I went to a bridal shop to be measured for the dress she was having made just for me to wear. I sent Brooke the measurements and waited patiently for my dress to arrive. Finally, the dress arrived at my door not too long ago. However...the damn thing is way too big. I don't know if they ignored the measurements I gave or what, but it's about 6 sizes too big. It's a strapless dress that won't stay up, the bottom drags the floor and it's just awful! Knowing that I need to have the dress radically altered, I called the above mentioned friend, Pam, who I thought could alter the dress in a jiffy. Ya...not so much. She doesn't sew. So I am up the creek.
So...if anyone knows someone who is quite good with alterations, I would greatly appreciate any help!!

Impossible yoga position but she likes to have goals that no one else can imagine, so they'll shut up about how they understand exactly what she's going through

Give Steph Meyer (soon to be Rayman) a call. She has someone who did a bunch of stuff to her wedding dress.
I know a master tailor in town who works at a uniform company and does work on the side, but he lives in a rooming house, and I doubt you want to go there for a fitting.
THANKS! I will definitely give Steph a call! Thank you so very much!!!
