Tailor Recommendations in the Nashville Metro Area

[btq96r]

Anyone have a good tailor they use and want to pass on a recommendation for?  I picked up a new sport coat and need to get it adjusted for my awkward build by someone who knows what they're doing.  

Had a tailor when I lived in Murfreesboro, World Alterations, and the guy there was awesome.  I suppose I could drive down there on a day off coming up, but wanted to see if anyone has a person they trust closer to Nashville.

I've used Becky White for years. She lives on Hwy 12 about 4 miles west of Briley Parkway going towards Ashland City. She does a LOT of wedding dresses, prom dresses, and she has done suits for me, cargo pants, shorts, waists, hems, etc. She works out of her home. Her number is 615-726-0821. Just say that Grady Cash recommended her.

This place is great!  I found an English Scottish Tweed Norfolk Jacket last year that was too big, but something I wanted to have after losing one years ago.  The lady in the shop measured me and the alterations were PERFECT!  Give them a try.  In the Melrose area off 8th Avenue.  I work in the same building.

Almost four years after getting this solid recommendation, I'm sad to say the wonderful lady who runs this shop is retiring at the end of the month.  Found out when picking up a jacket today she worked on for me.  I think I had three jackets and as many shirts perfectly adjusted to make me look better than I should.

Thanks for the heads up; I need to see her before she goes/

Hopefully it's just to say your farewells.  She's stopped accepting new work so she can clear out all she has before the end of the year.
