Seamstress/Fashion Student for 10 Mini Skirts (Vintage Ties)

$320

Inner West NSW, Australia

23rd Mar 2026

Hi! I’m looking for a skilled seamstress or fashion student to create 10 Mini Skirts using upcycled vintage ties for a designer market in Sydney. The Project: Quantity: 10 Skirts in total. Design: Vertical patchwork style using vintage ties (see reference photos). Silhouette & Volume: I want an A-line / flared fit with plenty of movement and "air" (not a pencil or tight fit). Please use the natural triangular shape of the ties to create a "circle skirt" effect. Details: Each skirt should use around 14 ties to ensure it has enough volume and doesn't sit flat against the body. Features: High-waist elastic casing. Please ensure the elastic is firm enough to hold the weight of the silk ties without rolling or sagging. Hem: "Sharkbite" / pointy hem using the natural tips of the ties. Material: I will provide all pre-washed vintage ties (sorted by color/style for each skirt). No zippers or buttons are needed. Requirements: - Sewing machine + Overlocker (for clean internal finishes). - Experience with silk/polyester fabrics. - Good eye for color/pattern alignment. Timeline: Materials ready: This Sunday (March 29th). Deadline: Finished pieces needed by April 11th. Budget: $320 for the full project.

Need sewer to make a belt and a harness out of seat belt-like straps

$30

Petersham NSW 2049, Australia

26th Jan 2026

I need two items sewn. I don't have space to use a sewing machine. I can supply all the strapping and clips but not sure about thread to use. Belt: nothing fancy. Just a belt made with seat belt-like straps and quick release clips. Needs to be able to support some props for a costume. Harness: vest sized harness. Made with seat belt-like straps and quick release clips. Quick release clips would be used at lower rib cage area and another set below collarbone height to ensure the shoulder straps don't slip off shoulders. Also would like two straps and quick release clips attached to back of each shoulder strap to be able to attach a prop..
