Argumentative, defensive, combative, full of excuses. Unable to follow clear, simple direction. 3 wks later I picked up only to find it was opposite of my ask and sloppy. I took back and was called next day to make sure directions were clear, Karen still didn't get it! I was clear "DO NOTHING, I WILL PICK UP!" Karen then proceeded to do a hack job on my expensive skirt, ruined it! She blames customer for any issue, she's nasty, verbally abusive and lacks self awareness.

Ive had Karen alter many items from jeans to satin tops. She has always been professional, knowledgeable and a lot of run to work with. My clothes have been completed to perfection and in a timely manner. She's also reasonably priced. I am extremely particular about my fashion and want my clothing to be flawless. I trust her to accomplish this task. I have no problem recommending Karen to family, friends and strangers.

I feel violated. The seamstress that altered my brides maid dress requested three separate appointments for me to come in and try the dress on, but each time the dress got progressively worse and each time she promised to fix it. She blamed me for giving her wrong advice (even though I am not a seamstress) and she became extremely angry and verbally abusive toward me, even yelling. I paid the full amount for my dress even though I am unable to wear it but will never step foot in this business again. She needs help in more ways than one.

Hopefully caught her on a bad day. I'm glad it happened the way it did. Found a different person who was chill, sense of humor and did not feel compelled to lecture me. Life works out!!

Karen is very professional and a very good seamstress! Price was very reasonable and my 5 items were done perfectly and on time!

Wonderful experience! I can't say enough good things about Karen. She is a lovely woman with vast experience in her craft. She repaired a zipper for me on a vest. Service was done fast and perfect and she cares. I highly recommend her and I'll be back!

I don't often write reviews, but my experience with Karen was unfortunately so poor that I felt the need to warn others in need of a seamstress. Some of my concerns were:- Karen's dog is usually in the shop and would get on my clothing or open the door while I was changing. There was a noticeable odor when I went to the shop.- There was no privacy in the fitting room, and when I asked to have the blinds closed, Karen's response was "No one walks by there. You're fine." I closed them myself for my own privacy.Karen worked on my wedding dress, and each fitting was at least an hour. Majority of the time was spent with her talking, and I felt that I had to interrupt to get a word in, including asking for what alterations I wanted with my dress.Her texts were incredibly demeaning, passive aggressive, and confusing. When I asked if we could talk on the phone to clear up the confusion, and she refused to have a phone call. Multiple times when I asked for changes to be made, she got very upset. When I asked about scheduling my next fitting, I was told that I was "managing" and that she did not work on my time table, which was difficult to hear considering I needed my dress in time for my wedding day.My fiancé took his pants in to have them hemmed, and she had my wedding dress hanging up and showed it to him, which was a disappointment because we had hoped to keep it a surprise for the wedding day. When he mentioned this to her, Karen told him to keep the secret and not tell me.During one fitting, she accidentally poked me with pins multiple times while talking with her hands, and when I asked her to stop, she became upset and abruptly ended the fitting.At the beginning of my time with her, I recommended her business to my friends because of her quick turnaround time, but after 3 friends and family members had a fitting with her, they told me their concerns about the disorganization (items everywhere, stains on the rug in the fitting room, etc.) of her shop, as well as the frustration of feeling that their time was wasted because Karen talked so much, elongating the fittings far past the amount of time they needed to be.When I went in to get the dress (unfinished, as I did not trust her to finish the dress considering she mentioned multiple alterations I had never asked for), she verbally harassed me while I was paying and hit her fist on the desk. I really try to support local businesses, but this was a very bad experience, and I would caution anyone against taking their items to Karen.

Super sweet owner! Awesome ideas for creating a bandana the way she has done! Glad she's going about it the right way and is always there to answer questions! She's done some sewing work for me and was extremely fast, offered suggestions and everything turned out so professional! It's disappointing that others "review" a business that they know nothing of and have never done business with.

I absolutely love these bandanas! They are so adorable and they are so reasonably priced and there is such a large variety to pick from. They come in any size you can imagine. Karen the owner is very flexible and easy to work with. Watch out for some counterfeiters out there the quality is not as good. Always shop at bandana babe!
