Singer 6268. Sews in reverse. Foot dog was not not moving enough, fixed that issue and could sew with dial forwards and backwards like normal, but the part I pushed back into place to make that work keeps slipping back off, causing it to go back to not moving enough. Still sews in reverse when you use the foot pedal

Sewing baby clothing

$150

Melbourne City Centre VIC, Australia

24th May 2026

Hi, I already have the patterns cut and am looking for someone to help me with the sewing side of things. I sew myself as well, but the workload has become a little too much for me to manage alone, so I’m hoping to find someone reliable to help share the load. The role would be around 6 hours per week and could be done either from my home in Viewbank or from our Victoria Market store. I use Janome domestic sewing machines and an overlocker. At the moment I’m mainly looking to build up stock of: Pants from 0–3 months to 2–3 years Beanies from 0–3 months to 6–12 months Dribble bibs Scarves The sewing itself is not overly difficult — there is just quite a lot to get through. If this is something you would be interested in please contact me.

Seamstress for copying some traditional Greek dresses

$200

Bulleen VIC 3105, Australia

16th Apr 2026

Hi there, I’m looking for an experienced seamstress or dressmaker to replicate a traditional Greek dress. I have an original garment available to use as a reference/template. The dress is a long, pleated style with an inner lining, so experience with pleating and structured garments is highly preferred. This project is for a not-for-profit cultural dance group, so we are mindful of cost. We’re looking to start with one piece as a test run, ideally completed as soon as possible. If the quality and pricing are right, we would then proceed with a series of dresses in various sizes to be completed by early June. Details: Strong attention to detail required Ability to closely match the original design and fit Open to discussing whether you or we source the fabrics Please reach out with examples of previous work and an indication of pricing. Thanks in advance!

Asa was very easy to work with, easy to communicate and organise a time to meet and completed the dress required well ahead of time. Definitely recommended. Thank you

Seamstress needed

$200

Clyde North VIC, Australia

6th Mar 2026

Hi! I’m looking for a seamstress or clothing maker who can help create two custom tops by combining a flannel shirt and a graphic t-shirt. I’ve inserted photos of the inspo. I’ve already purchased the shirts, and they are currently coming in the mail. I’m mainly looking for someone experienced who can confirm the designs are possible and give a quote to complete them. Top 1: Use a flannel shirt for the sleeves and sides Use the graphic t-shirt for the centre/front panel Top 2: Mostly a flannel shirt Replace the back panel of the flannel with the graphic t-shirt design The goal is to keep the graphic visible while combining it with the flannel. Both the sizes should be a 3xl. I’m happy to: Drop the shirts off locally or post them if needed Looking for: Someone experienced with clothing alterations or garment construction Advice on whether the designs are feasible A quote for making both tops Location: Clyde north, but flexible if posting is easier. As mentioned, the shirts should be here next week and I want this completed before April 4th. Thanks!

Katherine was amazing, she did an incredible job at making my vision come to life. She was very professional and very communicative throughout the whole process and was amenable to complete the task from a different state. Would highly recommend her and her work! Thank you again Katherine!!
