It was a really enjoyable experience working with Barbara on the custom draperies for our home. She was flexible with my timeline as I had another home project to get wrapped up first. She kept me updated and was very straightforward with expectations on fabric ordering and install. The fabric and her work were perfect, and she ensured installation was quick and to exact specifications. It would be a pleasure to work with her again, and I wouldn’t hesitate in highly recommending her to others.

Barbara did a great job measuring, designing, and producing the drapes. She also arrange for an installer to put up the drapes, all on budget and at a good price. She oversaw the installation and made sure every thing was just right. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to have attractive drapes of the best quality.

Barbara has done several projects for me in 2 different homes. First, she made these beautiful linen panels for my master bedroom in my Alpharetta home. They were so beautiful, I wanted to use them in my new home in Virginia Highlands. Of course, all best-laid plans have a way of backfiring. The curtains were 10 inches too short for my new home. So with the help of my designer, Barbara took extra material from some unused panels and lengthened the old ones to fit in my new master bedroom. They came out perfectly. You would never know they weren’t originally designed to have the extra length. I love them!!
I was so impressed, I asked her to make a couple of throw pillows and matching table runner for my kitchen table. They too came out stunningly and are a nice touch to my open family room concept.
Not only is her sewing skills amazing, she is a professional. She was easy to work with. She follows up and makes sure she is giving you exactly what you want and in a timely manner. I highly recommend her for any of your custom sewing needs to make your home beautiful.

Barbara is a true professional! She was most impressive in our first meeting as she is a great listener and from there it becomes her goal to deliver on what you want. She did this and more.! Barbara offers suggestions, but is careful to align them with client objectives. She is timely, and over-delivers. Installation day was a breeze as she and her Installer were prompt and left our home as they found it. Barbara delivers 5 Star service and the quality of her work is also 5 Star. I would highly recommend Atlanta Custom Draperies for window/top treatments, pillows and table covers. We have one additional smaller project and of course it will go to Barbara. She has a delightful personality and it is a pleasure working with her. My husband summed it up by saying we were “exceptionally pleased” with her straight forward way of doing business.

I found working with Barbara was most enjoyable. Barbara was creative, extremely professional and helpful. The workmanship was flawless. I would definitely recommend her and I would use the firm again.
Having been very pleased with the work that Barbara Sealy did in our living and dining rooms, we have now asked her to drape two windows in our bedroom with a Colefax and Fowler floral chintz that we brought from London. She was able to deal well with the splashy pattern of the floral bouquets, and worked creatively with the fact that there was not quite enough fabric–this pattern has since been discontinued–and we are very very pleased with the result that she produced. These wonderful drapes absolutely make our rather large bedroom, with its otherwise rather bland pale blue walls and cream wainscoting, and being interlined with bump as the others, keep noise, light, and cold out at night, and open easily to let sunlight in during the day. We cannot say enough to recommend her work, both for her professional manner and its end result.

I hired Barbara to make dining room drapes. Although I sew, she has ideas and trade “secrets” that made the finished product so much better than I could have done, giving them a truly custom look.
She was on time for appointments and thorough in her measuring and note taking. I did not have much fabric to work with and she added elements to make the most of what I gave her to work with.
The turnaround time was excellent and she installed them quickly. She even brought me a surged piece of the fabric to carry in my purse for fabric matching! Truly a wonderful experience start to finish!
Barbara does impeccable work! She helped me choose fabric, we completed the design together, she verified all measurements before she started the work, and she delivered when promised. I could not have asked for a better experience. She made 2 curtains for my dining room and 6 valences for my sunroom. I get compliments on them all the time, and I’ve referred her to many people.
A fantastic, detail-oriented seamstress. Easy to work with and extremely creative. Fantastic, competitive prices. As a real estate agent and interior designer, this is the only custom drapery source that I will use. I have worked with this company for over 5 years and have had no complaints from myself or my clients. Simply fabulous.

I have commissioned Barbara for several custom projects over the past few years, and I am always blown away by her workmanship. Barbara’s attention to detail and her level of perfection is amazing. I have never come across any other seamstress who’s quality compares to hers. Plus she has always been very helpful with measurements and yardage, fabric planning, and even assisted me by taping out an area for monogramming on several pillows she created for me.
