Sew a patch onto a suitcase.

$100

11th Sep 2026

Requiring 1 patch to be sown onto a suitcase. I have 20 suitcases (6 x 78cm and 14 x 55cm)that need a 7cm x 4cm patch sown onto the front of the material suitcase. Due to the number of suitcases it may be easier to do this on site rather then have then picked up and dropped off to be worked on in a different location. I believe they can be hand sown, but happy for you to advise best process for longevity. Also happy to discuss price, just putting a generic price get the listing up.

Looking for a seamstress/costume maker to recreate 3 vampire costumes

$1,000

Sydney NSW 2000, Australia

27th Aug 2026

Hi! I’m looking for an experienced seamstress, dressmaker or costume designer who can recreate three custom costumes for myself and two friends, based on the reference photos attached. We’re wanting the ethereal/gothic vampire look from the references, with each girl having a slightly different costume: • ivory/gold two-piece with draped sheer fabric • white/cream flowing gown with corset-style detailing • blush pink/cream flowing gown with gold embellishments They don’t need to be exact screen-accurate replicas, but we’d love them to be as close to the references as reasonably possible, particularly the silhouettes, sheer/draped fabrics, gold detailing and overall romantic gothic look. We’re happy to discuss fabrics and ways to recreate the detailing without making the costumes unnecessarily expensive. They only need to photograph beautifully and have the same overall effect as the originals. We can provide individual measurements for all three girls and attend fittings in Sydney if required. Looking for someone who can assist with: • pattern making/adapting existing patterns • fabric sourcing or advising us what to purchase • sewing and construction • gold trims/embellishments • fitting and alterations Please send through examples of previous costume, bridal, formalwear or similar work if possible. Budget: Open to quotes. Please let me know your estimated cost for all three costumes, or your price per costume. I’ve attached multiple reference images showing the costumes from different angles. Thank you! ♡

I have an existing long-sleeve maxi dress in 95% nylon/5% spandex that has been damaged. The dress is discontinued and I'd like it replicated as closely as possible, including the fit and drape. I have the original dress available for you to create the pattern from, but I don't want the original cut or unpicked.

Experienced seamstress to alter 50+ garments

$500

The Rocks NSW 2000, Australia

30th Jul 2026

Experienced Seamstress Required – Bulk Clothing Alterations (Approx. 50 Garments) I’m looking for an experienced and meticulous seamstress or tailor to alter approximately 50 women’s work garments, including jackets, skirts, coats and standard midi dresses. The majority of the alterations are straightforward and involve: * Taking garments in at the back or side seams to achieve a better fit. * Shortening hems on some skirts, dresses and coats. Ideally, I’m looking for someone who can: * Visit my home to take my measurements and assess the garments. * Take the garments away for alteration and return them once completed. Alternatively, I’m happy to drop off and collect the garments if that is more convenient. As there is a large quantity of clothing, I would prefer to negotiate one overall price for the entire project, rather than paying per garment. Of course, I’m happy to discuss any additional cost if a particular item requires a more complex alteration than anticipated. I’m located in the Sydney CBD (The Rocks). Please let me know: * Your experience with women’s tailoring and garment alterations. * Whether you offer home visits. * An estimated turnaround time. * Whether you’re able to quote a package price for the full job. Quality workmanship is more important to me than speed, and I’m hoping to establish an ongoing relationship with someone I can use for future alterations as well. I look forward to hearing from you!
