Don't use Liz who advertises in the Sun. Check prior post in the contractors forum. I finally got my swags after waiting since July. She cut the fabric wrong and I have a seam in the middle of 2 of the 3 swags. They were cut from 2 $50 drapery panels. Still waiting for my pillows. Mary

I agree. I had a similar experience. I think she should be run out of business.

DO NOT USE ROSALIE, she cashed my check for shortening my pants and then gave me different pants than what I gave her. I only checked one pair of pants and did not check the others. The pants she gave me were larger than what I wear and were not of the same quality I gave her.

I have also had a horrible experience with Liz, the seamstress. She was paid in October in to do simple slip covers for 2 chairs and I still have not gotten everything back. I can't reach her because her voice mail is full and she does not reply to texts or emails. Her work is not very good and it's been the worst experience since I moved to the Villages.

I had a similar experience with ROSALIE in Village of Hadley. DO NOT USE HER!!! I made the mistake of paying her in cash. You said you wrote her a check. I bet she asked you to make it out to Cash. But look at the back of the check. It had to be endorsed if she cashed it, and if it's her name, she can be in big trouble. Even if your bank doesn't send your checks back to you, they will give you a copy of it if you ask for it. Send me a PM and I'll give you more info what you can do if she doesn't give you your money and pants back.

You guys have problems with LIZ, and others of us have had problems with ROSALIE. Sounds like both of them are worth not just avoiding but being called on what they are doing. Disgusting that a fellow Villagers would treat us like this! We should share this wherever we can to avoid Liz and Rosalie for any kind of alterations and other work.
