What do seamstresses include?
Ready-to-wear clothes don’t always cut it. You may need a dress for a special occasion or an alteration to achieve a perfectly fitting suit. Or perhaps you simply need to repair a broken zip or mend a beloved garment. Whatever type of sewing you need, our platform connects you with nearby sewists who can do the task. Here’s a list of sewing services you can get done on Airtasker. Â
Pattern cuttingÂ
Pattern cutting is translating your design onto paper or digital form. The pattern serves as a template for creating wearable clothes. Achieve a bespoke dress that fits you perfectly, or create unique garments for your clothing business. Our platform helps you find local sewists with pattern cutting skills. Once your collection is ready, hire a model to pose in your clothes while a photographer takes amazing product photos for your website.Â
DressmakingÂ
You may find clothes you like, but the fit or size just doesn’t work for your body type. Or perhaps you have a dress in mind to wear to an event, but you can’t find it at shops near you. With the help of a dressmaker, you can still get the dress of your dreams. You can have a variety of clothes made, from midi dresses, ball gowns, to business suits.
Clothing repairÂ
We all have our go-to outfits, and it can be heartbreaking to find a tear or a hole in an irreplaceable piece of clothing. Maybe you bought that shirt abroad, had it custom-made, or splurged on that one expensive dress or jacket. No need to say goodbye to your beloved garment just yet! Instead, find a seamstress or seamster who can fix up your clothes, so they look as good as new. Taskers may even offer to dry-clean your dresses after the repair.Â
Clothing alterationÂ
Some clothes may fit well, except for an awkwardly loose part around the shoulders. Or pants could have a flattering fit but are far too long for your height. With clothing alteration, you no longer have to settle for ill-fitting clothes. A nearby local seamstress can alter your clothes to create custom-fit garments, whether it’s a new suit that needs to be tailored or hand-me-downs that need to be shortened. After your alteration, have a Tasker iron your suit, and you’re good to go for your business event!Â
Prom dressmakingÂ
Prom is an exciting time in a teenagers’ life. Most pretty dresses, though, can leave a big dent in your wallet. With Airtasker, you can look like the belle of the ball at prom with a dress that was made just for you. Please tell us how we can help you achieve your dream dress. Then, wait for offers from experienced sewists who can work with your design, budget, and schedule. Afterwards, find affordable yet professional hair stylists and makeup artists to do your hair and help you achieve the perfect evening look on prom night.Â

Seamstress to Alter School Uniforms - Waist and Hem
$100
The Gap QLD, Australia
5th Dec 2025
My daughter has short stature and requires 4x school uniform dresses altered. This not only requires the hem but raising the waist band. There is a zipper running down the front of the dress, possibly impacting the ease of altering the waist. However my mum previously did so so it’s certainly possible! Unsure of pricing and happy to take suggestions.

Skilled sewer to make a cover for a dog bed
$150
Marrickville, New South Wales
1st Nov 2025
I have a rectangular foam dog bed (approx 30cm x 70cm), and I would like a new cover on it. -> the bed in the pic currently with a blue cover. I have an existing cover (for a different , but similarly sized dog bed) that I would like to use for this task (as the fabric very good quality / strong). -> the brown cover in the pic. The existing cover needs to be remade to fit the bed. There is enough material but it needs to be cut up/ sewn bag together so it fits the other bed. I understand there may be so additional seams due to the currently structure of the cover as the existing bed bolsters around the sides. There is a zip on the bottom side which goes around 2 sides so the cover can be washed. This will also need to be re-used in the new cover so it can be taken off and washed. The tasker will need to come and collect the cover and the foam insert (bed) from my house, and drop it back once complete. We can discuss more in person then :)
Working with Marla was an absolute dream! I took a chance with her as it was her first task and it absolutely paid off. I think this is one of the best experiences on Airtasker. She was friendly, punctual, amazing attention to detail and most of all, did a PERFECT job on making my dog bed. I would highly recommend her for your sewing needs. Thank you again Marla, it’s been so wonderful working with you

Sew covers for these cushions.
$100
Fletcher NSW, Australia
29th Oct 2025
I would like someone to sew new covers for these cushions. I have the material and the longest cover is 140cm x 50cm. I can take the green ones off for you to use as a guide. Zippers aren’t necessary and the workmanship doesn’t have to be amazing - just the front facing parts need to look tidy and they need to sit flush with each other.
Amazing craftsmanship. Quick and outstanding service. Highly recommend 😊

Sewing neck labels into T-shirts
$10
Geebung QLD, Australia
25th Oct 2025
Wanting someone to help with the task of unpicking stitching, removing current label, then sewing in a new one. My small business is growing and needing some tasks taken off my hands. Can be a once off or ongoing (preferred). I have 300+ tees currently but order more weekly. Pay = $1.20 per tee completed. The first few might take a bit to work out but once you get into it it’s super easy and takes 1-2mins to complete one. Beginner friendly - simple unstitching then sewing straight line!! Experience in sewing preferred.
Very on to it and efficient - would recommend to anyone!
