I have had the pleasure of utilizing Ms. Slusher for significant sewing creations. Whether it has been
for special occasion dresses or home furnishings her designs have consistently been extraordinary
and done with great detail. She listens to the customers needs and answers with professional
designs. She is appropriately priced and her workroom responds in a very timely manner. I have been
a customer for twelve-years and I am always over-whelmed at what she has created for me. I have
tried other so-called designers in Dallas, Texas but always come back to Barbara in San Antonio.

This letter is to express that in my opinion Barbara Slusher is an outstanding seamstress. Barbara has been sewing for me for over 20 years.  Anytime I needed a dress for cotillion, semi-formal, prom
or just a new outfit I was able to call on her and she got it done. It didn’t stop just there, Barbara has
made anything from drapes for my home to Barbie Doll clothes for me, and no matter what it was the
quality was always outstanding.

My name is Louise Robles and I had the privilege to work with Barbara Slusher for 2 years at Providence High School.

During my time at Providence High School it became necessary to have a few clothing items altered.  
Barbara made the alterations at a very good price and in a timely manner.  She did an excellent job
and I was very pleased.

Barbara quite often wore things she had made and I was always impressed with the quality of her
work and her style.

Barbara has been doing my alterations for years. She is very professional, timely, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Over the years I've taken her my suits, slacks and shirts to be tailored. I have a lot of
confidence in her abilities and I know that the job is going to get done correctly.

Barbara has been sewing for my entire family for over 30 years!  I continually refer her to co-workers and anyone who needs her expertise; be it a simple hem adjustment or detailed alterations. Barbara is
very capable of taking on the biggest projects in a timely manner.

She recently assisted my cousin in the preparations for her wedding. Barbara recommended the
styles and materials for not only the wedding party but also designed the bride's wedding dress!! It
was gorgeous!! I must add that everything was completed and delivered months before the big day,
which was a great relief to the bride and our entire family!!

I am most pleased to write a professional testimonial letter reference the sewing and alterations work of Barbara Slusher.  I have known Barbara for 2 years. She is a professional person, performing above
standards and always meeting her tasks on time. I encountered her on a project where she had to
complete a huge order of drapery work for a private school in a very short period of time. Having the
work ethics and expertise that she has, she completed the project way under the projected date to
deliver and install.  She is very dependable and her integrity is above reproach. I would recommend
her for any project any day of the week. She is an excellent professional at what she does. I am sure
that whoever hires her to complete a project will find her a good worker as well as a pleasant person.
She is truly a gem.

I have had several items altered by Barbara and her work is exceptional, not only is it done professional but in a timely manner.  She is also willing to work at your convenience to finish your

Barbara recently designed a beautiful a dress for my 25th birthday party.  She guided me towards making the perfect selection on my fabric and dress design.  She even assisted in helping me pick out
accessories to complement my dress.  I will continue to have custom-made dresses designed by
Barbara.  She is definitely one of a kind.

I met Barbara Slusher in '98.  We both shared a number of interests that cultivated good conversation, friendship, and professionalism from the get go.

I was very impressed with a stunning royal blue dress Barbara designed and made in a matter of a
few hours.  Without thinking, I turned the dress inside out to further examine the finishing touches of
perfectly graded seams, and the clean smooth curve lines around the neckline; the zipper, hem, and
how meticulous Barbara is in her tailoring techniques.  I must have blown Barbara away with my
boldness!  I couldn't help myself...I love beautiful work, and that is exactly what Barbara Slusher
produces; fine finishes, knowledge and expertise in handling a wide variety of textiles with confidence.

Along with the quality of Barbara Slusher's work is her ability to commit in a timely fashion, never
behind her lead.

With great pleasure, I highly recommend Barbara's talents to the trade, and to all clients.  Kudos to
Barbara!

Sew Chic altered this gorgeous Quinceaneara
dress several sizes!
Every little girl grows up thinking about how magical her wedding will
be and specifically that perfect dress that makes her look as happy as
she feels.  After my engagement I couldn’t wait to start trying on
wedding dresses.  A fun but laborious process was worth it when I
found the gown of my dreams.  Unfortunately it came in several sizes
too large and looked more like a tent than the glamorous gown I
imagined.  Because of the complexity of the many layers and intricate
bead work, I couldn’t find a seamstress who would touch it.  I began to
think that there was no hope until I was referred to Sew Chic and
Barbara Slusher’s amazing work.  She immediately put us at ease
with her confidence and unquestionable skill.  Her meticulous eye and
commitment to perfection turned what could have been disaster into a
really positive experience.  On top of that she made my mom a custom
dress for the wedding when all she could find in retail stores was
either too matronly or inappropriate.  All in all, Barbara really went
above and beyond all of our expectations and truly took care of us.  I
would highly recommend any bride use her in tailoring their gowns.  
She was such a blessing.
