Alterations

$150

Thornlie WA, Australia

31st Aug 2025

My tool belt has recently ripped from carrying heavy weight (I usually have around 12kg of tools hanging from the loop fabric). I’ve called around to a few alteration places, but most said they couldn’t repair it because the material is too thick and bulky for their machines. I was wondering if you’d be able to help me by reattaching the loop and reinforcing it and another same loop next to it so it’s strong enough to hold the weight again. I can also send through more photos if that would help. Thanks so much for your time and I really appreciate your advice.

Sew a custom size fitted bedsheet

$70

Perth, Western Australia

29th Aug 2025

I am looking for an experienced person to make / sew a custom sized fitted bedsheet to fit one of the mattresses on my boat. It is an odd shape (see photo and rough sketch with measurements) but it should be fairly easy for a dressmaker or similar to do. Keep it mind it is a fitted sheet, so needs a drop on all sides with elasticated edges (mattress depth measurement included in sketch). I can provide the material and elastic if necessary, or happy to pay up to double if you can supply your own (material must be suitable for a bedsheet, either cotton or cotton blend, in any solid colour). I had a friend previously offer to do it but they have stuffed me round for months, and I really need it ready by October for a trip. I’m located in Seville Grove, but happy to come pick it up once completed as long as you’re in the Perth metro area :)
