Alterations
At Ngatha Gather, every alteration is treated like a small act of restoration. I work with a gentle, hands‑on approach, shaping each piece so it fits your body and your life with comfort and confidence. Whether it’s a favorite pair of jeans, a well‑loved dress, or a jacket that needs a second chance, your clothes are handled with the same care and intention I bring to all my handmade work. My goal is simple: to help your garments feel good, last longer, and stay part of your story.
