Default Clothes alterations

I am looking for someone to shorten some slacks. Is there anyone in the Villages that does that kind of work?[SIZE="6"][/SIZE]

I called this number a woman said she wasn't Rosalie and hung up. I called Lindas alterations and left a message yesterday and no return call. Anyone else have a recommendation? Len & Mary

Not in The Villages but there is a booth at The Markets of Marion (Flea Market) that does alterations. Never used them so I can't say if they are good or bad.

Look in the "Daily Sun" Service Directory. Two ads today under Sewing/Embroidery. One: "NY Tailoring - FL Prices", 631-431-5855. The other, "Former Fashion Designer, Alterations," 352-259-2609.

The Dry Cleaners in the Pinellas Plaza by Winn Dixie sends things out for alterations. I had a zipper repair done there and they did an excellent job!

Liz from NY tailoring picked up our things yesterday. Never did get a call from Linda since Wed.

Maybe Linda is on vacation or is not feeling very well. I don't know this Linda but maybe there is a good reason why she is calling people back just yet.

There is a shop in the mall in Wildwood (between ACE hardware and the post office) that has alterations listed on their window display.

Does anyone know Rosalie's phone number? We are out of the country and I need to find out if she found my slacks that I gave her. She was to shorten four pair, gave me back two and could not find the other two when we had to leave.

Thanks.
