Leather alterations - Anybody local?
Hey
I was thinking that I'd like to have one of my jackets altered a little. (made smaller, not bigger... [laugh])
Anybody have experience getting leather repairs or alterations done by a local shop?
Edit: Has anyone hired Sew What to do alterations?

Dude, do yourself a favor and bring it to Tom's Tailors on Grand Avenue in St. Paul. I've brought a few leather jackets to them and each one turned out perfect. They're just west of Dale and Grand, on the South side of the street.

Re: Leather alterations - Anybody local?
Is "Tom's Tailors" the same as "Tom the Tailor"?

Re: Leather alterations - Anybody local?
Your bridesmaid dress was made out of leather? What kind of wedding were you in? Did you bring Gabe on a leash? Sorry bored at work. On a constructive note; Tom is going to do my race suit and everyone on mnsbr raves about how good his work is, haven't heard anything bad.

Re: Leather alterations - Anybody local?
You know I actually thought about getting white leathers for riding to get married in. I thought if I was going to spend THAT much on a wedding dress that I may as well get more use out of it. Alas I was talked out of it by family.
Seriously they tailor anything.

Your family sucks. That's the best idea ever.
