Our Story
A Family Legacy
Woven in Thread

It started with Grandma Carol Galante designing fashion in the 1960s and Grandpa Fred running his fabric store. That love for fabric and craftsmanship passed through the generations β from Carol to Judaline, and now to Ava and her daughter Alex.
Today, Ava's Alterations brings 75+ years of combined family sewing experience to every garment that enters our Franklin, WI studio. We're not just seamstresses β we're a family of artisans who understand that your wedding dress, your suit, your gown carries a story.
Our team is ASL fluent and proudly serves the Deaf community. We take on the complex projects others turn away. Because for us, the harder the challenge, the more rewarding the result.
