Someone with capable sewing skills as needed to help with alterations for mardi gras costumes. Alterations need to be done on pre-bought shorts and woman's tops to make them more fitted for the event. Basically just taking in the length of the shorts for certain people and making them a little more fitted. Roughly over 20-30 garments (shorts and boxing robes probably need alterations. Need to be based close the survey hills. $25 per item not hour.

Harry was absolutely amazing. He was able to turn up last minute when we needed help with around 10 to 15 alterations on costumes for Mardi Gras. Everyone was extremely happy with his work and how he fitted the costumes perfectly to each participant. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing tailor/alterator/seamstress.
