Precise Alterations is a family-owned business located in Cornelius, North Carolina, founded by master seamstress and designer Yong Bullard. Originally from Seoul, South Korea, Yong brings more than 39 years of professional sewing, pattern-making, and design experience to every garment she touches. After graduating from a specialized sewing and pattern-making school, she built an impressive career as a designer, pattern maker, seamstress, and business owner.
Her professional experience includes working in Beverly Hills, California, as a pattern maker and first sample maker for renowned fashion designer Nolan Miller, whose designs earned six Emmy Award nominations. Yong later relocated to Atlanta, Georgia, to be closer to her family and continued her career as Head Seamstress at Miz Scarlett’s in Buckhead, one of Atlanta’s premier couture boutiques specializing in wedding gowns, ball gowns, and elegant evening wear.
While living in Atlanta, Yong met her husband, Jim. When Jim’s career brought them to North Carolina, they relocated to the Lake Norman area and fulfilled their dream of opening Precise Alterations. Together, they have built a business known for quality, professionalism, and outstanding customer service.
