I love this idea all of us in our lives know someone that would benefit from this or of we don't we hear about the concerns of friends that have family members that do. I had a friend with a younger sibling that was grateful for a mother who was a novice seamstress to be able to alter clothing - this is definitely a much better solution and supports a local designers and business! While I did read on the blog that they work with factories in China to make the clothing I hope one day when the textile industry picks back up in the US they will consider working with US mills and factories.
