A lot of dry cleaners do this sort of repair work. Just call around. 
Also there is a tailor shop at our local mall; there may be one at yours.
And try Nordstrom's department store. They do alterations and may know of
someone.

Hi Fran,

I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not that skilled with fine needle work

Anyone else have recommendations?
