Seamstress needed – wrap pants x3 Looking for an experienced seamstress to sew 3 pairs of wrap pants for a fashion graduate collection. I'll provide the pattern and 2 completed toiles for reference, so construction should be straightforward ad easy for someone confident with sewing pants. Each pair takes roughly 1–1.5 days to complete (with cutting out patterns but honestly I’ll try my best to cut everything out so it’s an easier job for you) Fabric will be lightweight (cotton cheesecloth and other cotton blends) and all materials will be supplied. Deadline is Thursday the 21st — no exceptions. Please reach out if you're interested or have more questions

I run a small Melbourne-based clothing brand called Watercolour and I'm looking for a skilled sewist to help sew sweatpants, with the potential of ongoing work. I handle all the cutting and overlocking, so you'll receive pre-cut, pre-overlocked panels delivered to you. Your job is purely sewing/assembly. The pants have an elasticated waistband and drawstring. Relatively straightforward construction. I'd like to start with a paid 2-pair trial at $80 per pair. After that we'll work out a production rate together based on your time. Orders come in gradually so it's typically 2–3 pairs at a time for the moment. Preferably you will have access to your own sewing machine and overlocker, though if you are the right fit for us there may be the option of using our home studio. Ideally looking for someone Melbourne-based who takes pride in their work and is open to something long-term. Keywords: machinist, seamstress, tailor, dressmaker, alterations, garment construction, clothing production

I have two small tank tops I’d like combined into one garment that fits me better. I’m open to ideas on the best approach, but here are some thoughts: Option1-Side panels: Cut both tanks and sew them together at the sides to add width across the bust and waist area, creating a wider, more comfortable fit. Option 2 – Layer design: Use one tank as the base and incorporate fabric from the second as decorative or structural side panels for extra room. Option 3 – Your suggestion welcome! If you have experience with alterations and think there’s a better way to combine both pieces into one flattering, fitted garment, I’d love to hear your idea before we start. Both tanks are a similar style. I can provide my measurements (bust, waist, hips) so you can plan the alteration properly. The goal is a comfortable fit that doesn’t look patched together — ideally it should look like one original piece. I’m based in Brisbane and happy to drop off and pick up at a convenient time. Please message me with your approach, timeframe, and quote before accepting. Prefer someone with clothing alteration or dressmaking experience. Photos of similar past work are a bonus

Looking to have 3 skirts get taken up, and one also tightened. Satin is a tricky material to sew so I’m looking for someone who can carefully do the job, and a preference for someone who can pick up and return the clothes to my home. Pretty standard satin skirts, but third one (not pictured) which I want shortened AND tightened has a more flowy edge. Will provide picture if required. So alterations would be: - satin skirts 1 &2 (different colours of browny grey one pictured) shortened - satin skirt 3 - shortened and taken in (to be tighter)
