Angela completed the task of making two cushion covers from fabric I imported to match an existing blind and did a lovely job. Prior to taking on the project she was able to discuss the details in a way that indicated she had a clear understanding of the requirements. This gave me confidence to proceed and I am very happy with the result. Thank-you Angela

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!!
