NeonLights 0 #1 January 12, 2013 Hello! I have a suit that i have already sent back for alterations once. And it still is not quite right. I dont want to send it back again due to it taking so long. I would rather have it done local and quick. The last thing i need changed should be very easy and quick for a skilled seamstress. Does anyone know of someone who i could go to? I am not interested in going to LS. I am in the perris, elsinore area... And if not, would you trust a seamstress inexperienced with jumpsuits? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #2 January 12, 2013 Used to be a lady out there named Shirley. Last name might be Pelland? Ran a company called Pineapple Express? She did good work.....---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parachutist 2 #3 January 12, 2013 I'd suggest having an experienced rigger do it. Tailor shops may not use the right thread, and weak thread on a jumpsuit would probably leave you needing repairs soon. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeonLights 0 #4 January 12, 2013 Thanks chris. I will ask around @diablopilot - shirley is a ghost. I cant find anything about her. Her old website is now asian food Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #6 January 12, 2013 Kenn Walker, Mark Hewitt do some nice work at the Elsinore loft. Dru Poma at Lompoc is very good as well. She fixed my suit a few years back after the medics cut it off. It was pretty ragged, but the work she did, it looks un-altered from new. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimjumper 25 #8 January 13, 2013 Shirley got out of the suit business at least a couple years ago. Said it didn't pay enough for the labor involved. Too bad. I used one of her suits for tandems until the material was see-through and couldn't be patched anymore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
