Find experienced local tailors in Marrickville South

Hi! I am a vintage/up-cycle start up business that is in search of a tailor that has the ability to follow pattern pieces. I currently have an influx of old and new stuff that I would like to rework into new items and designs. I have a sewing machine however don’t have the hours to commit. Per item made. I will pay the maker $10-15 per piece depending on complexity. To give example the first pieces I would like to create a dress from large shirts that I have on hand. I have purchased a pattern piece for this desired look and would be in search of someone who can articulate my design into a finished rework/upcycled piece. I would like to create a first range of around 10pieces to begin. So if you feel like you have the ability to meet the criteria then reach out to me and we can talk! The first few pieces will be quite simple in design. Thanks! -Talei

Take up suit pants and shorten suit jacket sleeves

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 :)
