Sewing jeans & dress

15th May 2023
Hello there! I am looking for someone who can help me to sew up the ends of a jeans so it looks neat again. The pipes were too long so I cut of a part, but now there are a lot of wires hanging loose. There is also a small split on each of the pipes, and I would like to close those. They are about 10cm. I also have a dress with one strap that needs to be shortened by just a few cm. As I don't have a sewing machine it would take me a lot of time to do this by hand. For someone with a sewing machine it shouldn't take too much time. I could drop off the clothes in Marrickville or around the CBD. Thanks in advance! - Due date: Flexible
